He told talkSPORT: “I’ve got a contract until the summer of 2022.

“I haven’t really acknowledged them [transfer rumours].

“I’ve just been focused on each game. Ultimately, I’ve still got a contract here.

“My main focus is to finish the season strong.”

Ings, 28, joined Saints from Liverpool in a £20million deal in July 2019 after a one-year loan.

United and City are both battling over Harry Kane’s signature after the Tottenham striker revealed he wants to leave.

Ings is another name in the mix, while Pep Guardiola’s side are also thought to be weighing up a move for Romelu Lukaku.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has demanded up to three new signings to mount a Premier League title challenge next season.

Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo are two other names being discussed by club chiefs.

Solskjaer said: “I hope we are going to strengthen with two or three players, we definitely need to challenge higher up in the table and we’re still too far behind to think it will just come by itself.

“We’re not where we aim to be, we’ve got ambitions to move one place further up.”

When asked last week whether Edinson Cavani’s new contract would stop him buying a new forward, he said: “I can’t say we’re not signing a striker. Of course not.”
