"Until we’re told otherwise we’re delighted that’s still the case. We always plan, and you have to be ready for any eventuality and the what ifs.
"At this moment of time, he’s still here and he’s still our player- long may that continue.
"Kaddy (Karamoko Dembele) is different, he’s here on a season-long loan. There’s a natural break in Jordan’s, which is quite normal.

"After a couple of wins or defeats, people’s feelings or emotions could change; all we can deal with is the right here, right now.
"The window is still there for Huddersfield so we’ve just got to be patient and wait. It is what it is, we’ve known for a long time this was coming. We want Jordan to be here and I think he wants to be here as well, and we’ll be delighted if he remains; if not we’ll deal with that.”
