The agent of OB attacker Yankuba Minteh is coy over interest from Newcastle United.

There's been claims Newcastle are in talks with OB for the youngster, with an offer imminent.

His agent Bakary Bojang told Bold: "I can't say much about what is going on right now, but as the OB director (Bjrn Wesstrm) says, there is interest in him.

"It has been there since January, but we are not close to making an agreement with anyone, as far as I can tell.

"I can't name countries or clubs, but there has been a lot of interest after Yankuba ended the autumn nicely. There are also more and more clubs following him now.

"But like I said, there's nothing on the table yet and to be honest I'm not focusing too much on the interest right now, because he can't switch before the summer anyway.

"That is why it is important that he keeps his focus on the game on the pitch. He is in a really good place and enjoys being in OB, where he wants to perform to the best of his ability every time."
