Brighton boss Chris Hughton isn't ready to pull the plug on a deal for Celtic striker Moussa Dembele.
Celtic have slapped a £30 million price-tag on the 21-year-old's head and have no need to sell.
Hughton said of Dembele: "He is a very good player and he has had a very good season, but he's not our player.
"He is one of probably 100 names you could mention that, if I had an opportunity to want them, then you probably would.
"But he's not our player, like anyone else you could throw into the mix. We'll work as hard as we can in this period of time leading into January.
"If anything happens in January, it will happen because it is right and the processes leading into it would be right."
