Adkins confirms interest in Raynes

There has been speculation that Adkins has moved quickly in a bid to land the 22-year-old centre-back as soon as the transfer window opens, but the Iron chief does not know where the stories have come from."Yes, Michael is one of several young players who we have been watching over the past 12 months," he told the Scunthorpe Telegraph."But I have not spoken to anyone from Stockport and I have not submitted a bid for him."I really do not know where these stories come from."I do know that allegedly they have financial problems and may have to sell players. Maybe that is where it has come from."
