ON-LOAN Burnley striker Anthony Shandran has been told he will not be offered a new deal at Turf Moor next season, writes Tony Curtis.

Shandran, who scored a 25-yard wonder strike against Carlisle, joined City on loan at the start of February on the recommendation of skipper Chris Brass, himself a former Turf Moor player.

Shandran quickly stated his desire to stay at City when his contract at the Clarets expired.

Shandran has made 11 starts and six outings from the bench during his three-month spell, scoring three times against Leyton Orient, Cambridge and Carlisle.

He joins former City goalkeeper Marlon Beresford and Clarets' veteran skipper Steve Davies in a total of 13 players, who have been shown the Turf Moor door by manager Stan Ternent.
