Newcastle United boss Alan Pardew denies claims they have agreed to sell Jose Enrique to Liverpool.
Reds legend Phil Thompson made claims of a 'done deal' over the Spanish left-back.
But Pardew told the Evening Chronicle: "There's definitely no deal between the clubs - 100%.
"He's under contract here until next summer and we hope to open talks on a new deal as soon as possible. That's where we are.
"We want to keep our best players, and Jose's one of them. As far as anything being a done deal, that's not true. We want Jose to stay. Nothing's changed."
