Newcastle United midfielder Sean Longstaff has been told to forget about any dream Manchester United move.
Toon boss Steve Bruce has advised the 21-year-old midfielder to ignore the tittle-tattle" that is distracting him.
Bruce said: I think Sean now needs to concentrate on his own performances, rather than worrying about speculation and tittle-tattle. I don't think there was any real legs in the Manchester United story. Whether there was interest, I've never really asked the question.
Distracted? You are a young lad, so you are going to be.
He's got to learn to put that aside and just get on with the job in hand, which is playing for us.
I do believe he signed a new contract last Christmas. There is no problem there contract-wise.
The thing for him now is to forget about contracts, forget his knee injury, forget Man Utd it's all about getting back to playing like we know he is capable."
