Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has poured cold water on a specific transfer story in the British press.
Central defender Gabriel has been linked with a move away from the club to help raise funds.
However, Arteta rubbished such speculation, telling reporters that Gabriel was too important to his setup.
Asked about the speculation, he stated: Gabi is a really important player for us. There is nothing going on there at the moment."
The Gunners are planning a fire sale in the last week of the transfer window to get rid of fringe players.
However, first teamers who are regular starters are not a part of that equation at present.
