ACCRINGTON Stanley have laughed off speculation linking them with a move for former Hull City and Nigeria creator Jay-Jay Okocha.

The ex-Bolton playmaker, 34, is looking for a new club after being released by the Premier League-bound Tigers.

But Stanley chief executive Rob Heys insists Okocha is well out of their price range.

"It's nice to be linked with players of his quality, but he's definitely not been in touch with us," said Heys.

"But if he'd like to get in touch, we'd be more than happy to talk with him."
