Sean Dyche says there have been no enquiries for Burnley striker Ashley Barnes.
Barnes has been linked with Crystal Palace and Chelsea in this window but Dyche told Sky Sports News the player will not be leaving the club.
Dyche said no club had made enquiries about buying him and when asked if Barnes will be at Turf Moor after Deadline Day, the Burnley boss said: "Yes".
The club are reluctant to sell the player who has 18 months left on his contract.
Sky Sports News reported that Crystal Palace were considering a late move to buy the player.

Dyche says playing in the Premier League on the same day as Deadline Day is not ideal if the club want to be active on deadline day.
"I don't think it's perfect, I think last year was the same. We had a game on deadline day and I found out at half-time I think that we'd signed Robbie Brady so I don't think it's perfect by any means," Dyche said.
