Danny Ings: 'Burnley fans abused me over contract situation'

Burnley striker Danny Ings has revealed that he has received abuse from his own fans because of his refusal to sign a new deal at Turf Moor.

The forward, who has scored 10 goals this term for the Clarets, is out of contract in the summer and has yet to sign a new deal at the Lancashire club.

Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United have all been linked with the 23-year-old, who has represented England at under-21 level.

Ings is quoted by The Mirror as saying: "Not for one minute of this season have I not been committed to performing for this football club, regardless of my contract situation.

"Everyone who knows me personally and people around the club know that I give 100 per cent for the team and for the fans.

"I had to turn off my Twitter notifications for a while as I got a small minority of people sending me some abusive tweets. That did upset me a little bit because of everything this club means to me."

Burnley will be playing in the Championship next season after being relegated despite a 1-0 win against Hull City last weekend.
