Soccer: Kluivert snubs Boro

Middlesbrough have been put in their place by cocky Dutch striker Patrick Kluivert, who has ruled out a move to the English premier league club.

Middlesbrough travelled to Barcelona last week to talk to Kluivert, and have also targeted Mark Viduka of Leeds and Portsmouth's Aiyegbeni Yakubu.

But Kluivert said: "I have no intention of going to Middlesbrough. I will not consider a move to a small club. I would like to go to one of the big London teams."
