Crewe Alexandra manager Steven Davis has said that there is no truth in the rumours linking him with a move to Wolverhampton Wanderers, who recently sacked their manager Dean Saunders. After their relegation from the Championship, Dean Saunders was recently sacked by the club. This was the second successive relegation for the club in 12 months, as they were Premier league club only a year ago. Bookmakers have installed Davis as the favourite to take over at the Molineux before the start of the new season.
However, the 47-year-old has said that he is not in discussions with Wolves, as he is only concentrating on the next season with Crewe Alexandra. He also said that he is extremely happy to be linked with a club like Wolves, but he is going to stay with Crewe. Davies managed to get the club from League Two into League One after taking over as the manager in 2012. They were expected to struggle in League One, but they have so far exceeded expectations by finishing in the mid-table. Crewe Alexandra finished the season on the 13th position with 64 points on the board.
It is expected that they will be pushing for a play-off place next season.
“It is flattering to be linked with any job because it is means you have been successful at your respective clubs. You just have to take that speculation in your stride and get on with things and that is what I’ve done on a few occasions here. I don’t tend to react to speculation and it has never been a distraction to me. All I’m doing is preparing the Crewe Alexandra squad for next season and have been kept busy talking to players, agents and discussing things,” said Davies. The club are expected to sign a couple of players in the summer.
