Roberto Mancini has insisted that none of his Manchester City squad will be allowed to leave the club during next month's transfer window.
The likes of Scott Sinclair, Joleon Lescott and Mario Balotelli have all been linked with moves away from the Etihad Stadium over the last couple of weeks.
However, Mancini believes that he does not have enough players at his disposal to make selling players a viable option.
"We can't sell players. We won't have enough to play if we sell," the Italian told reporters.
Mancini's team are currently second in the Premier League table.
