Liverpool striker Neil Mellor has turned down the chance to move to Hillsborough on loan.

Reports from Anfield claim that Mellor wants to take a chance at breaking in to Rafa Benitez' first team plans.

The 22-year-old, whose father used to play for Wednesday, has been injured since January with a knee injury, and the Reds boss would not stand in Mellor's way should he want to leave Anfield.

The news comes in a frantic week for Wednesday who have been rumoured to be chasing Marcus Tudgay and Dexter Blackstock.
