Keiren Westwood claims he did not have his head turned by speculation over his future and he is happy to focus on playing for Coventry.

The 25-year-old Republic of Ireland goalkeeper was linked with a move to several top flight clubs in the January window, while Tottenham were rumoured to have made a failed late swoop for his services on Monday. However Westwood claims he is happy at the Ricoh Arena and did not take much notice of stories linking him with a Premier League move.

"I didn't think I was going anywhere and it wouldn't have been in my hands even if I did," he told the Coventry Telegraph. "It's business as usual. I have never had my head turned by any of the speculation so I will just carry on as normal.

"I have come from the Conference and worked my way back up to the Championship so I have never really taken much notice of it."

Sky Blues chairman Ray Ranson reportedly snubbed Spurs' approach for Westwood after boosting the club's coffers earlier in the day by receiving almost £2million from Newcastle for Leon Best.
