Paris Saint-Germain manager Unai Emery has played down suggestions that Javier Pastore could leave for the French giants this month.
The 28-year-old is currently in his seventh season with PSG, and has scored six times in 21 appearances in all competitions for the Ligue 1 giants during the 2017-18 campaign.
Pastore has only started eight times in the league this term, however, and it was reported last month that PSG were prepared to sell the Argentine for £18m in the January transfer window.
Emery has branded the Argentine "an important player", and played down reports that the attacker is actively looking to leave the club.
"I've talked a lot with him," Emery told AFP. "When he's good he is an important player, when he maintains his consistency, when he trains and plays well.
"He didn't tell me he wanted to leave. I hope he'll train with us and that he'll be ready to play."
Sevilla, Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan have all been credited with an interest in Pastore.
