LARS Jacobsen’s agent has dismissed reports that Burnley have already spoken to the Everton full back about a move to Turf Moor – but he has not ruled out the possibility that the deal could happen.

Speculation in the national media has suggested that the Clarets have made contact with Jacobsen with a view to signing the Dane on a free transfer this summer.

Jacobsen left German club Nuremberg 12 months ago to join Everton on a one-year contract but has now come to the end of that deal.

The 29-year-old former Odense, Hamburg and FC Copenhagen right back recently said he was still hoping for another contract with the Toffees and was due to meet David Moyes for talks.

But reports suggest it is unlikely that Jacobsen, who made only six appearances for Everton during 2008/09, will be offered the opportunity to stay at Goodison Park.

His availability on a free transfer could be attractive to the Clarets, who are known to be looking for a right back.

Reports have suggested they have already had a £1.5m bid turned down for Middlesbrough’s Rhys Williams, who spent the second half of the season on loan at Turf Moor and is set to make his debut for Australia on Wednesday.

Burnley operational director Brendan Flood also said recently that the club could target Scandinavian players with experience of English football.

But Jacobsen’s agent, Karsten Aabrink, has revealed that the Clarets have not made any contact about a possible move.

“There has been nothing but maybe it will happen,” he said.

“I don’t know if they are interested, I only heard about it when I read it in the press.”

Jacobsen, who appeared as a second-half substitute in Everton’s FA Cup final defeat to Chelsea last month, has been quoted as saying he has had interest from clubs in other countries as well as England, but suggested he was keen to remain in the Premier League.

With no concrete evidence that Burnley are interested, Aabrink remained cautious when asked whether he thought Jacobsen would welcome a move to Turf Moor.

“I cannot say yes when it is only in the press,” he said.

“But of course I’m always happy when my players have interest.”
