Matt Refutes Spurs Quotes - Ipswich Town News

Town skipper Matt Holland has continued to refute a quote attributed to him earlier in the week. The 29-year-old says he was amazed when he heard about the report.

Holland told the club site: "I don't know where the Tottenham story came from. Adam Tanner rang me to say he'd seen this report saying I wanted to join Spurs and I thought he was larking about.

"There's no way I have talked about Spurs at all. It's a total mystery where the comments have come from.

"It is that time of the year when the media are searching around for stories and there is always a load of speculation stuff.

"My name has been linked with a number of clubs for a while but I'm more than happy at Ipswich and as far as I'm concerned, will be at the club next season.

"I'm certainly not desperate to move on and haven't let all the talk bother me, although I am obviously aware of the financial situation at Ipswich and know the club are looking to cut the wage bill."

The Irish international has been linked with a host of clubs since the end of the season.
