Boyd is in his second season at Brisbane Road

Leyton Orient caretaker manager Kevin Nugent has played down stories suggesting striker Adam Boyd could leave in the January transfer window.

Orient's 12-goal top scorer has been linked with a move back to Hartlepool, the club where he began his career.

But Nugent told BBC London 94.9: "If I'm totally honest I don't read press and I certainly don't go on websites.

"I've read somewhere that Hartlepool have made a bid but I've not spoken to anyone about that either."

Boyd, who joined the O's from Luton in the summer of 2007, scored 60 goals in 169 appearances during his time at Hartlepool.

He has scored 29 goals in 82 appearances for Orient.
