Southampton are not prepared to sell their captain James Ward-Prowse.
Aston Villa have enquired about the 26-year-old central midfielder.
The Villains are making waves already in the transfer market after reportedly beating Arsenal to Norwich star Emiliano Buendia.
Now they've switched their sights to Ward-Prowse, but Southampton aren't having it.
According to the Daily Mail, Saints have rebuffed Villa and will not be persuaded to change their stance.
The south coast club tied down Ward-Prowse - who came through the Saints academy - to a five-year contract last summer.
