The Leeds assistant boss will talk to Tottenham if they approach.
The Former Sevilla coach Juande Ramos is tipped to become Tottenhams new boss.
Leeds have asked Poyet to stay away from Saturday's game against Millwall to avoid distracting their players.
But the former Uruguay international, who played for Tottenham between 2001 and 2004, insists he has not spoken to Spurs and has not been told if Leeds have been approached.
The 39-year-old, who has worked with Dennis Wise at Leeds since October 2006, added: "Everybody is calling me and sending me texts about it but I don't know anything. I haven't been approached or spoken to anyone.
Leeds had earlier claimed they had not received an approach from Spurs for Poyet - and would not welcome one.
A statement on the Leeds website said: "Leeds United can officially confirm we have neither received an approach from Tottenham for Poyet nor a request from him to be released from his contract with Leeds.
