But Carrick told the Northern Echo: "The speculation doesn't really make a difference for us. We're in control of a lot of things. There's always decisions to be made.
"But we're happy with the squad we've got and we want to come out of January as strong, if not stronger, than we're going into it. We'll do everything we can to do that."
It's been suggested Leicester will have to pay £12m to prise Latte Lath away from Boro this month.
