"I understand his actions, he has a family and wants some security for his last few footballing years. Whether he stays here or not, I don't know. I certainly won't let him go for nothing."
Millers manager Moore, meanwhile, said: "If Tranmere are willing to let him go, I think we'll be favourites to sign him. There's no doubt he wants to come here."
