Everton reportedly have no interest in selling Dominic Calvert-Lewin during this summer's transfer window.
The England international's future has been the subject of much speculation in recent weeks, with Roma believed to be keen to bring him to Italy during the current window.
However, according to Daily Mail, the Toffees have no desire to sell Calvert-Lewin at this stage and have denied the reports from Italy surrounding a potential switch to Rome.
The 26-year-old only scored twice in 18 appearances during the 2022-23 campaign, having again struggled with a number of injury problems.
In total, Calvert-Lewin has represented Everton on 209 occasions since arriving from Sheffield United in 2016, scoring 60 times in the process.

Elsewhere, West Ham United are allegedly making progress when it comes to a potential deal for Southampton midfielder James Ward-Prowse.
The Hammers are believed to have emerged as the favourites for the Englishman, who is set to leave St Mary's this summer following the club's relegation to the Championship.
According to Football Insider, West Ham remain in talks with Southampton over a deal for the 28-year-old, and a move to the London Stadium is now seen as 'very possible'.
However, there is still thought to be an issue when it comes to the fee, as the Saints are said to be holding out for £45m for their captain.
At this stage, West Ham are only believed to be offering £35m for the Englishman.

Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest are reportedly lining up a move for experienced attacker Alexis Sanchez.
The 34-year-old is available on a free transfer this summer, with his contract at Marseille expiring on June 30.
According to El Futbolero, Forest are currently at the head of the queue for the Chile international, who is keen to make the move back to the Premier League for the 2023-24 campaign.
Sanchez starred at Arsenal in England's top flight between 2014 and 2018 before making the move to Manchester United, but he found it difficult to show his best form at Old Trafford.
The forward has since played for Inter Milan and Marseille, scoring 18 times in all competitions for the French outfit during the 2022-23 campaign.

In other news, Newcastle United are reportedly still interested in signing Southampton defender Tino Livramento during this summer's transfer window.
The Magpies had allegedly cooled their pursuit of the 20-year-old after learning that the Saints would not let him leave for under £40m.
However, according to the Daily Mail, there is still genuine interest from Eddie Howe's side, who are lining up another move for the former Chelsea youngster.
The report claims that Newcastle are unlikely to offer more than £30m for the defender, who only made two appearances during the 2022-23 campaign due to a long-term knee injury.
