Moyes unsurprised by Baines interest

23 December 2010 17:00
Everton boss David Moyes is not surprised clubs of Bayern Munich's ilk might be interested in in-form left-back Leighton Baines. Baines has rubbished suggestions he might leave Goodison Park following fresh speculation linking him with the German giants. The former Wigan defender has been one of Everton's few standout players during a difficult first half of the campaign and he is tipped for an England recall. Yet while that maybe attracting attention, Moyes - like the player himself - is adamant the 26-year-old will not be moving. Moyes said: "As far as I can see it can only be speculation. There has been no contact but it seems to have got quite a lot of headlines. "He is in good form, undoubtedly. He is rightly getting admiration from big clubs but I can guarantee, to my office, there has been no contact. We don't let our top players go, we keep them."
