Everton boss Frank Lampard insists Anthony Gordon isn't for sale.
Tottenham had been interested in a move for the 21-year-old but were never fully confident of Everton risking a backlash from supporters by selling him, particularly having already lost Richarlison to Antonio Conte's side.
Gordon has since been handed Everton's No.10 shirt as a signal of growing importance.
“You've have got to work to get the No.10 shirt and Anthony has earned it," said Lampard.
“He gives everything and is going nowhere. He is our player and we want to build with him."
