McCarthy: No deals for Doyle

And the former Ireland manager revealed that it would take a monumental bid from the Gunners or Manchester United to convince him to part company with the forward he paid a club record £6.5 million for a year ago.

Doyle recently insisted that he was committed to the club, leading to claims that the goal-getter's future with Wolves could be in doubt.

"When Kevin said recently that he was pledging his future to Wolves it suddenly caused a stir," he said.

"The reality is that he was saying it to get everybody off his back. Leave him alone and let him play his football.

"If Manchester United come in and offer the club £50 million and give him £200,000-a-week, I can't keep him. Then I'll have to say 'thanks, Kevin, all the best, see you'.

"But no, there's not been any approach from Arsenal. I can't be any straighter. Doyle will be a player for us unless someone comes in offering the earth, moon and stars for him."
