Aussie winger reported target of Dutch league leaders

FC Twente boss Steve McClaren could return to his homeland to bring Sheffield United winger David Carney to Holland. The Australian, who can also play at left back, has struggled to hold down a regular place at the Blades since his move from Sydney FC in 2007. Carney, 25, spent the second half of last season on-loan at Norwich City and suffered relegation from the Championship during his time at Carrow Road. The Australia international, who has 20 caps, has been linked with a host of European clubs in the past and according to Dutch newspaper TC Tubantia, he is now a target of Twente. McClaren's side currently lead the Eredivisie division on goal difference with seven points from their opening three games and may provide an attractive proposition for Carney.
