Gary O바카라Neil said there is no truth in reports that he will leave Wolves in order to replace Erik ten Hag as manager of Manchester United. (More Football News)
A number of names have been linked with Old Trafford since minority investor Sir Jim Ratcliffe took charge of football operations earlier this year.
O바카라Neil, appointed at Molineux days before the start of the current season, has overseen an impressive campaign in which Wolves have far exceeded expectations.
They currently sit ninth and are 20 points clear of the relegation zone despite having been tipped to struggle following the departure of former boss Julen Lopetegui in August.
Instead they have sights on possible European qualification and could finish the weekend in seventh 바카라 likely to be worth a place in next season바카라s Europa Conference League 바카라 if they beat Aston Villa on Saturday evening and other results go their way.
Despite his rising personal profile, O바카라Neil dismissed suggestions he is being lined up for the United job.
바카라I don바카라t know where it came from,바카라 he said.
바카라Growing up, Liverpool and Manchester United always felt special. It바카라s an honour to be linked even if there바카라s no truth in it.
바카라I love it here. I바카라m a head coach, I바카라m always going to be a head coach. I바카라m really enjoying my time at Wolves. I was only made aware of (the links) by the media team to prepare for your questions.바카라
Matheus Cunha is in contention to feature against Villa having missed most of the last two months with a hamstring injury.
The 24-year-old went off during his team바카라s home defeat to Brentford on February 10 but could return to the fold on Saturday.
He has scored 11 goals in all competitions in what is is his first campaign since signing permanently from Atletico Madrid.
바카라He will play some football for us this week,바카라 said O바카라Neil. 바카라He바카라s back, he바카라s fine and has worked his socks off. He바카라s shaved an enormous amount of time off the medical diagnosis of what he had.
바카라He바카라s done unbelievably well and now the decision for me is when and how long he plays. He is training, sprinting and has done everything you can do to test the hamstring, apart from being put into a Premier League game.
바카라It바카라s now on me to decide if that바카라s from the start tomorrow, the bench tomorrow or from the start on Tuesday (against Burnley).
바카라We바카라re trying to get it right for him as he바카라s massively important to us for tomorrow바카라s game, but also the nine after that.바카라
