Hearts sporting director Joe Savage insists Hearts would not have entertained any late bids for Lawrence Shankland before the transfer window slammed shut.
The stand-in Tynecastle captain has been in scintillating form this season leading to speculation over possible bids for the striker in January.
However, it did not materialise with Robbie Neilson thrilled to hold onto the striker who was "not for sale", according to Savage.
