Charlie Adam insists his mind is focused on saving Blackpool from relegation rather than a potential summer move to Liverpool.
The talismanic midfielder has excelled this season and attracted interest from both Liverpool and Tottenham in the January transfer window.
A prospective switch away from Bloomfield Road never materialized and the 25-year-old has helped to give Blackpool a fighting chance of avoiding the drop.
The Scotland international only has a year to run on his current contract but he is adamant his sole focus is on Blackpool's trip to champions Manchester United on Sunday.
"I just want to focus on the next game, that is all I can do," he said in the Times. "The club will make the decisions about what it wants to do. It isn't down to me.
"I have got a year left on my contract so we will see what happens but all that matters now is getting the result that we need."
Blackpool currently occupies 18th place in the league table - only in the relegation zone on goal difference - and Adam feels the club can hold its head high, regardless of the result at Old Trafford.
"If we are good enough then we will stay in the Premier League," he said. "If not then we will at least know that we have given everything from the first game.
"But one thing's for sure, in the future people won't look back and say, 'Blackpool played some really good football but went down', they will look at the bare facts that we came up one season and down the next. In a way we are fighting for our reputation as much as our status."
