Saints chairman Ralph Krueger has insisted that Jay Rodriguez and Morgan Schneiderlin will not be sold this summer.
Krueger spoke to the Daily Echo this afternoon and moved to reassure nervous fans over the future of the club and manager Ronald Koemans squad with five first team players already sold this summer and Schneiderlin and Rodriguez heavily linked with moves to Tottenham.
He said: Specifically to Rodriguez and Schneiderlin, they will not be going anywhere.
We see them as part of a core and the core weve got right now and in place is a core that is where Ronald would like to go and they a part of that core.
Any reports that Rodriguez or Schneiderlin are leaving or we are in engaged in transfer conversations are totally off the mark.
They will not be sold.

My boy Ralph bringing the heat.
Wow he really wants that £27m for Schneiderlin. Deadline day deal looming.
