too bad
Dirk Kuyt has delivered a snub to his Premiership suitors by pledging to stay at Feyenoord.
The Holland international was being courted by a string of English sides ahead of Wednesday's transfer deadline.
Everton, Liverpool, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur were all keen to prise the striker from the Rotterdam club's grasp.
But the Feyenoord ace has decided to ignore the overtures from abroad and will stay at De Kuip for this season.
"I have taken my definitive decision," Kuyt told the club's official website.
"I am staying at Feyenoord.
"The feeling was not good, at the last moment, to leave such a beautiful and fantastic club.
"For this season, nothing more will come from anything with other clubs.
"I have weighed up what is good for me and what is not and I decided on Sunday evening to remain at Feyenoord."
Kuyt's decision to reject a move to The Premiership will force clubs to have a late rethink over their transfer targets before the deadline.
Spurs boss Martin Jol is keen to bring in a new front man after selling Fredi Kanoute to Sevilla and is torn between Chelsea's Carlton Cole and Livorno's Cristiano Lucarelli.
Everton could move for Preston North End ace David Nugent, while Liverpool are still being credited with an interest in old boy Michael Owen.
The Real Madrid striker is rumoured to be in England on Monday to discuss a move with Liverpool and Newcastle, who have had a bid for Owen accepted.
