News | Clark addresses Roberts speculation

Blyth Spartans manager Lee Clark has addressed the speculation surrounding Callum Roberts over the weekend. 

Talk on social media suggested the former Newcastle United winger is to go on trial with League One outfit Rotherham United this week. 

Roberts, understandably, is likely to draw interest from clubs in the EFL after a remarkable start to his Blyth career with seven goals in eight matches.

However, Clark confirmed the 22-year-old has been unwell over the weekend and will be involved for Saturday's trip to Hednesford Town - IF he recovers in time.

He said: "I am aware of the interest from Rotherham United.

"But, he will be involved for us at the weekend if he recovers from illness."
