Nottingham Forest manager Billy Davies says he knows nothing of Town interest in striker Dele Adebola and has no plans to sell the 34-year-old Nigerian. Chief scout Steve McCall and coach Ian McParland watched Adebola in action against Birmingham earlier in the week, although there is no suggestion that the Blues have as yet made an approach for the ex-Crewe frontman.

Davies says he is unaware of the Blues' interest in his player: "It was a surprise to me. Adebola is going nowhere. I am very surprised because Adebola is a major part of this squad and a major part of what we are doing and a major part for the rest of the season."

The ex-Derby boss says he joked with the striker about the potential move: "We wished him all the best on the training ground this morning, myself the staff and the players, and wished him well at Ipswich."

Meanwhile, Town chief executive Simon Clegg has dismissed a claim by credit agency Equifax in a weekend newspaper that the Blues and half the Championship are insolvent: “Ipswich Town FC is most definitely not an insolvent football club.

“While there is a historical legacy of debt, nothing is now owed by Ipswich Town to a bank or other financial institution.”

Clegg recently told TWTD that the club's debt is likely to continue to grow.
