Bristol Rovers boss' six-word response when asked about reported interest in Portsmouth's Brandon Haunstrup

Kenny Jackett issued a similar response when asked about Brandon Haunstrup being a reported target for Bristol Rovers.

And Gas manager Ben Gardner was also in the dark his side are apparently interested in the left-back.

According to Mail Online, Rovers are keeping tabs on Haunstrup, with his Fratton Park deal expiring at the end of the season.

The Waterlooville lad has made 19 appearances for the Blues this campaign, but found himself omitted from the squad for Tuesday night’s 2-0 victory at Lincoln.

Lee Brown’s return to full fitness following Achilles surgery saw him named on the bench at Sincil Bank, with Haunstrup left on the south coast.

Jackett was emphatic the academy graduate won’t be departing before Friday night's 11pm transfer window deadline when asked after the win over the Imps.

And judging by Gardner’s riposte when quizzed about the rumour, it seems Haunstrup hasn't been considered by Rovers during this month’s transfer window.

After their 1-1 draw at Bolton, the Memorial Stadium chief told Bristol Live: ‘I don’t know anything about that.’

The Gas already have three players who're capable of operating on the left-hand side of defence.

Luke Leahy featured in their draw at the University of Bolton Stadium, while former Pompey loanee Tareiq Holmes-Dennis was an unused substitute.

Michael Kelly is also on the books.
