" There's been a lots of gossip about Manchester United and other clubs, but to be honest I take no notice of it.
"I still have a contract with West Brom and that is all people need to know.
"Sometimes clubs do become interested in players and I, like any other players, would find that flattering but I am contracted to Albion."
