Leeds United striker Billy Sharp has revealed that he turned down the chance to join Ipswich Town during the recent winter transfer window.
It had been suggested that due to a lack of action, the 28-year-old would be open to the prospect of leaving Elland Road, with Ipswich a potential destination.
However, the centre-forward has insisted that a combination of him being "settled" in Yorkshire and Ipswich's current striking options resulted in him staying put.
"Leeds said I could have gone [to Ipswich] but I don't want to leave. I'm settled here. It's a great club and I want to score goals for Leeds," he told the Yorkshire Evening Post.
"Ipswich have two good strikers and I wouldn't have played much so I didn't want to leave, but I am a professional footballer and I do want to play more."
Sharp has scored three goals from his 21 appearances for Leeds this season.
