Portsmouth chief Storrie: Diarra, Kranjcar staying

Portsmouth chief Peter Storrie says midfield pair Lassana Diarra and Niko Kranjcar are not for sale.

He told the Portsmouth News: "I'm sure during the summer there will be all sorts of crazy stories about this offer and that offer. But Niko and Lassana are going absolutely nowhere, we've no need to let players go.

"The reality is the amount of offers you actually get are very, very minimal - but the press like to write you've had this bid, you've had that bid. The other day we were supposedly after Zarate but no-one has a clue what that's about.

"Who is it that's had these talks? It's none of us. That's going to happen all the time I'm afraid, so we just ignore them because there's no point reacting to them. We don't have to sell any of our players.

"I am sure one or two will want to move because they are not playing regularly, but we will deal with those as and when they come around. But we're not looking to sell anybody."
