OWEN COYLE ADMITS THERE HAS BEEN NO NEW INTEREST IN HIS PLAYERS

Wigan manager Owen Coyle insists he is yet to be approached by clubs about any of his players.

Last season's top scorer Aroune Kone and defender Antolin Alcaraz joined Everton following the club's relegation from the Premier League and the likes of James McCarthy and Shaun Maloney have also been linked with moves away.
Recent reports have suggested Newcastle are lining up a move for McCarthy, but Coyle admits he has not been contacted about the Irish midfielder.
"At this moment as we sit here, I can honestly tell you there has been no so-called interest in any of our players, and long may that continue. But I'm fully aware of the way the window works and know that could change at any time," he said.
Wigan brought in a new recruit on Thursday after completing the signing of winger James McClean from Sunderland for an undisclosed fee.
McClean could face Manchester United in Sunday's Community Shield
at Wembley and Coyle revealed he took a pay cut to secure his move to the DW Stadium.
"He took a drop in salary to come, such was his desire to play football,"
said Coyle.
"That was fantastic to see in a young man.
"All too often in football, finance is the motivation for some players.
"It is great to have someone at your football club who is prepared to take a step back because he believes it will eventually lead to making two forward."
