Burnley captain Heaton: Has Man Utd, Chelsea rumours unsettled Keane?

Burnley captain Tom Heaton says Michael Keane hasn't been unsettled by frenzied transfer speculation.

Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Everton have all been linked with big-money raids for the 24-year-old.

But when asked if Keane is getting distracted by the rumours, Heaton said: “No, not at all.

“I think it is what it is, there is a lot of media speculation about things these days.

“In fairness to Keano, he's been outstanding this year, as have a lot of other players.

“And I know he's fully focussed on the job, and his performances have been absolutely outstanding and I don't expect that to change.

“There's no need for any arm round the shoulder or anything like that, it's the nature of the beast.

“We just take it for what it is."
