"The first team is not really my domain and there's a lot of paper talk on so many players," he told Goal.com.
"I don't know whether the first team are interested in Tom Ince or not but he is a good player. He did great when he was here, he's a really good kid and we wish him well wherever he's going to be."
Goal.com exclusively revealed that Liverpool's move for Ince is being held up by Blackpool's request to have a 30 per cent sell-on clause included in the transfer, and that the Seasiders have dropped their asking price from £8 million to £6m.
Meanwhile, Liverpool youngster Michael Ngoo is set for a loan spell with Hearts, and the agent of Jack Butland feels that his current club Birmingham are pricing the Reds out of a move for the goalkeeper.
