Gary Hooper 'denies claims that VIP box row scuppered Sheffield Wednesday move'

Gary Hooper 'denies VIP box claims'

Norwich City striker Gary Hooper has seemingly denied reports that his proposed season-long loan move to Sheffield Wednesday on deadline day fell through because of a row over a VIP box.

The Star claimed this morning that Hooper wouldn't budge on his demand that friends and family could watch at Hillsborough after Norwich and Wednesday had reached an agreement on a loan fee and wage contribution.

Hooper has appeared to quickly rubbish the report, sending his first tweet in over two weeks that simply says "not true".

Former Celtic striker Hooper hasn't started a Premier League game for Norwich this season. He could try to secure another loan move when the emergency loan window opens a week today.
