Crystal Palace manager George Burley has played down reports former Holland star Edgar Davids is to join the club.
The 37-year-old former Ajax midfielder has been out of the game for two years but has reportedly been offered a pay-as-you play deal with the Eagles.
However, Burley said: "There is nothing definite about Davids. This is to do with a friend of a mate who knows Edgar and it was mentioned that he might like to start playing again.
"Edgar has a home in London and he's talking about starting to play again. But it hasn't gone much further than that.
"There is a long way between wanting to play again after two years of retirement and getting involved in a tough league like the Championship."
Davids has also turned out for Juventus, Inter and AC Milan and had a spell at Tottenham from 2005 to 2007.
