Southampton boss Ruben Selles insists he hasn't heard anything about Russell Martin's imminent arrival and says he is currently expecting to be in the dugout for the Liverpool game on the final day of the Premier League season.
Martin is understood to be closing in on a move to take over at St Mary's, with news of his possible arrival breaking before the Saints lost 3-1 to Brighton on Sunday.
Selles signed a deal to take the reins until the end of the season following the sacking of Nathan Jones, and insists he's unaware of any move to appoint the current Swans boss.

Speaking after the defeat to the Seagulls, Selles said: "I don't know anything. I didn't read anything. I think I just get the question everywhere I go. It has not changed anything in my position or since we spoke on Friday.
"I have been respectful with the club and I have put all my knowledge into this to keep this team together and the club together. I expect that if something goes on like that, and it happens before the Liverpool game, they will communicate it with me in the proper way.
Asked if he might look to seek clarity on the situation from the club, he added: “No, I don't need to go to nobody, I think everybody knows who I am. I think everybody knows where I am. Everybody knows that. I'm talking with you. I'm being the face of the club for the last three months and I've given a reference for everybody. And I expect that to continue being like that for the last game against Liverpool.
“I have a clear idea from the beginning and I know I'm going to stay here until the Liverpool game unless something changes. If something changes it's not my decision. I need to be focused. It's been a hard week for us and I was focused on keeping the boys ready for today's game. Coming here with an identity to try and win the game. I think you saw a team that knows that they want to compete and that was my focus."
