JUVENTUS have admitted they have no intention of selling Alvaro Morata.
The Spaniard joined the Italian giants from Real Madrid in 2014, but he has only found the back of the net once in 18 league appearances this season.
And according to reports Madrid and Arsenal were both looking to make a move for the 23-year-old.
Madrid have an buy-back option in Morata's contract but, with the potential transfer ban coming up, the Gunners believed they were in pole position.
But Juventus' sporting director, Giuseppe Marotta, has ruled out any move for the striker.
"We have no interest in dealing with Real Madrid or any other club," he told Italian TV station Mediaset Premium.
"We've never considered selling Morata. He's part of the backbone of this team; he's a youngster who has shown he's the real thing.
"We're used to keeping hold of players like him."
