Eddie Howe insists Newcastle United have no intention of selling their best players and has calmly denied suggestions Martin Dubravka was offered to Manchester United on deadline day.
The Newcastle boss also feels that Allan Saint-Maximin can achieve all of his career goals on Tyneside with the club's new policy a far cry from the days of Mike Ashley when the best talents, including a young Andy Carroll, Yohan Cabaye and Demba Ba, were all sold to more ambitious clubs.
Dubravka was linked with a swap deal with Dean Henderson on the eve of deadline day but Howe, who played down interest in the Old Trafford back-up man last week, now wanted to make it clear to concerned supporters that the Slovakia star was also going nowhere.
