Motherwell insist they have received no approach for manager Jens Berthel Askou amid reports, external linking the Dane with French Ligue 1 side Toulouse.

Berthel Askou has made an extraordinary impact at Fir Park since taking charge last summer, with his side on the fringes of the Scottish Premiership for a time and on the brink of securing European football.

Before arriving in Scotland, the 43-year-old Dane was assistant at FC Copenhagen and has had spells at clubs in his homeland, Sweden and the Faroe Islands.

He had been linked with Celtic and it is now been reported that he is attracting interest from mid-table Ligue 1 side Toulouse, with their head coach Carles Martínez Novell leaving at the end of the season.
