There was speculation yesterday that Leicester City midfielder Richie Wellens was heading out on loan to FA Cup giantkillers Oldham Athletic.
Wellens, who has just returned to action for City after injury, was spotted in the Boundary Park crowd as the Latics knocked out Liverpool on Sunday.
The Mercury understands several clubs are interested in taking the 32-year-old out on loan.
Wellens made his first start for City since April in Saturday's FA Cup fourth round stalemate at Huddersfield Town.
