Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers has dismissed reports claiming that Brighton & Hove Albion have had an offer accepted for striker Moussa Dembele.
Earlier this week, it was claimed that the Premier League side had been successful with an £18m bid for the Frenchman, who has impressed in his 18 months in Glasgow.
However, despite acknowledging that the 21-year-old could be a wanted man in January, Rodgers has suggested that it will take a significant fee to tempt the Scottish giants into a sale.
The 44-year-old is quoted by The Mirror as saying: "I am not sure where it's come from. Moussa's been linked with so many clubs since I've been here.
"There's been no contact between the clubs and Moussa is very much still a Celtic player. There is no fee, no bid, there have been no talks.
"I can't say [he will stay in January]. I live in the real world of football and you can say things that make you look silly."
Dembele has scored a total of 40 goals in 69 appearances for Celtic.
