Scunthorpe United boss Nigel Adkins has blasted rumours linking goalkeeper Joe Murphy with a move to Sheffield United.

The Republic of Ireland international is out of contract at the end of the current campaign and has yet to sign a new deal.

Adkins told the Scunthorpe Telegraph: "We've had no contact whatsoever from Sheffield United and neither have they been in touch with Joe's agent. End of story.

"Anyone can put anything in a newspaper or on a message board somewhere."

Sheffield United placed first-choice goalkeeper Paddy Kenny on the transfer list after he turned up late to training on Christmas Day.
