Blackburn Rovers hitman Jordan Rhodes has refused to be drawn on the speculation regarding his future at Ewood Park.
The 23-year-old has hit 16 goals in 24 Championship appearances for the Lancashire outfit this term, resulting in rumours linking the in-form marksman with a move to the Premier League, with Crystal Palace among those reportedly keen.
Rovers boss Gary Bowyer recently stated that he felt no pressure to sell the former Huddersfield Town starlet, prior to omitting Rhodes from his starting lineup in the 1-1 draw with Manchester City in the FA Cup this afternoon.
Speaking to reporters following the result, the striker said: "It (the speculation) is not something I can influence. I am just happy to be playing football for a living as it is the best job in the world."
Rhodes is contracted to Ewood Park until 2017.
