Hide AdMartin was asked by the Star whether there was any interest in the 25-year-old and he was coy.
"I saw us linked with a left centre-half who I've never heard of this week," he said. "There's been so many players linked with us. Some will be real, some will be tenuous and some will be completely miles away from it. That's where it is.
"He's at a club that really values him, he plays all the time, I've never spoken to the player in my life.
“He's done great with his career recently, with Ireland and everything, but, when someone is linked, in football, the perception and reality are often really far apart."
