Everton boss Martinez refuses to discuss Baines, Fellaini futures

Everton boss Roberto Martinez refused to discuss the futures of Leighton Baines and Marouane Fellaini after their Capital One Cup win over Stevenage.

A fresh report has claimed that Baines has told Everton he wishes to leave for Manchester United while it has also been suggested the Old Trafford club are lining up a £38million bid for him and Fellaini.

Martinez said: "There are so many stories and I hope the authorities will look into it.

"It is a circus when the transfer window is open and the games are going on.

"If the competitive games weren't going on I could sit with you here and talk about transfer targets.

"At the moment I really feel for the game. We are concentrating on rumours too much. There is nothing to tell. If there is anything to tell we will tell our fans."
