Udinese patron Giampaolo Pozzo says they're serious about keeping hold of Alexis Sanchez and Gokhan Inler.

They are currently in fourth place and on target for the preliminary round, but many of their young talents are hot property on the transfer market.

"The big clubs are tracking Sanchez, but if we qualify for the Champions League, then we'll keep hold of him for another year, as he is still very young," said Pozzo.

"The same is true for Inler. We have agreed with Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis to discuss it at the end of the season. Based on the targets we achieve, we will plan our future."
