We are not saying they are true – just that they are out there.

WEST BROM

Roy Hodgson today insisted he had no plans to sell Peter Odemwingie and also cast major doubt over West Brom's future pursuit of Birmingham City's Liam Ridgewell.

WOLVES

Mick McCarthy is exploring the possibility of bringing Michael Mancienne - who spent two seasons on loan at Molineux - back to Wolves on loan from Hamburg.

Mick says he would be unsurprised to see Steven Fletcher attracting the Premier League big boys. He said: "Chelsea, Manchester United? Let me tell you, Fletcher wouldn't just be in the squad, he'd be playing. And if one of those clubs rings up, I'd still tell them to Foxtrot Oscar, of course I would."

Alex McLeish has urged Steven Fletcher to end his spat with the national team.

ASTON VILLA

Leeds have signed Fabian Delph on loan.

BIRMINGHAM

Martin O'Neill is hoping Craig Gardner's hankering for a move back to the Midlands – with Birmingham City his dream destination – will fade.

WALSALL

Youngster Mitchell Botfield has been allowed to link-up with local non-League outfit Rushall Olympic on a work experience loan deal.
