Oldham Athletic rule out move for Ched Evans

Oldham Athletic confirm that they will not invite Ched Evans to train with the club or offer him a contract.

Oldham Athletic have confirmed that they will not invite convicted rapist Ched Evans to train with the club or offer him a contract.

Sheffield United had allowed the 25-year-old to train with them following his release from prison, but they retracted the offer last month.

Newspaper reports on Sunday had linked the former Manchester City player with a move to Boundary Park, but the League One side have dismissed the rumour.

"Oldham Athletic are aware of various newspaper reports linking the club to Ched Evans," a statement on the club's official website read.

"The Board of Directors would like to confirm that we will not be extending an invitation for Ched Evans to train with Oldham Athletic nor will we be offering him a contract.

"The club will not be making any further comment on this subject."

Evans, who was found guilty of raping a 19-year-old woman in 2012, was released from prison in October after serving half of his five-year sentence.
