Palace boss insists there have been no enquiries

Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock has rubbished reports linking some of his players with moves to the Premier League. Palace have climbed the Championship table rapidly in recent weeks and a number of Warnock's youngsters have caught the eye. Sean Scanell, who has made his first-team breakthrough at the age of 17, is understood to be a target for Manchester City. 15-year-old John Bostock has been linked with a host of top clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and even Barcelona. There has also been speculation that Ben Watson could be on his way to Reading, but Warnock insists he has yet to be contacted by anyone. "There have been no enquiries for Ben and no-one has asked about any of our players about transferring them - whether they are 15-years-old or 50," Warnock told the South London Press. "It's all paper talk. That's not to mean there isn't something in a story - but no-one is saying anything to us."
