Norwich City defender Ben Godfrey admits he tries to avoid transfer talk.
Godfrey has been linked with a big club move away this summer.
“You will drive yourself insane if you look at the reports about yourself. You will not be able to play at your best, your energy will be getting directed elsewhere," he said.
“We have a young team, we are in the Premier League and we play attractive football. I think if there wasn't rumours going around we would be doing something wrong.
“But for me it is something you just let your friends, your family or whatever get excited about and you just focus on your job from week to week.
“It is a skill that you have to develop as a footballer."
