Rafa Benitez today confirmed the club will not listen to offers for veteran defender Sami Hyypia.
The big Finn has been the subject of transfer speculation of late – despite declaring his intent to stay on Merseyside.
Benitez has now moved to quash any links once and for all.
"It's true I spoke to Sami and I told him I wanted him to stay," said the Spaniard.
"I expect Sami to be with us for the start of pre-season. He is a good professional and it's not easy to find defenders with his experience.
"I told Sami I need him here and the positive thing is he wants to stay with us."
