The 30-year-old was allegedly a target for the Magpies.

His agent Gilmar Veloz said: "People say Spartak Moscow is an option, but English clubs are also interested.

"Liedson has a contract until 2010 and we are not looking to sell players. Our accounts are good without player sales."

Sporting coach Paulo Bento: "I don't believe I'll lose him. The fact there is interest doesn't mean anything. If we lost every player there was interest in Sporting wouldn't have enough players to make a squad."
