Ian Holloway will not allow transfer rumours and contract negotiations to distract his Blackpool players.
Holloway is keen to focus on the task in hand – securing Premier League survival – and the Seasiders boss is keen to keep his players performing despite transfer speculation surrounding his big names.
David Vaughan, Charlie Adam, Luke Varney and Matt Gilks are among the names at Bloomfield Road whose futures have come under the spotlight in recent weeks but Holloway is keen to ensure the speculation does not detract from Blackpool's efforts on the pitch.
He told the Blackpool Gazette: "Whether it be lads who are yet to agree new contracts or someone being linked with Charlie (Adam), staying in the Premier League is more important than anything. Nothing will get in the way of it."
Blackpool have been the surprise package in the Premier League this season as they currently sit in 13th place despite being tipped for the drop at the start of the campaign.Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
