Everton were heavily linked with a move for the 28-year-old striker on deadline day. Reports have suggested Everton had two bids rejected by Wolves.
Doyle created one goal and scored the other in Wolves’ 2-1 victory over QPR at Loftus Road on Saturday.
Ward said: “I was delighted for him. It has been tough for Doyler but he is the ultimate professional.
“He is not the kind of person to mope around and he has worked really hard in training.
“When a club like Everton, who are safe in the division and a big club come in you would be surprised if it didn’t affect him but the bid changed nothing.
“It is great to have players like him in the squad.”
