Real Madrid insist defender Nacho is not for sale.
The homespun fullback enjoyed senior action under coach Carlo Ancelotti last season.
Last season he played in 19 games, starting 13.
"He's the type of player it's a pleasure to work with. He never sulks and always does just what's asked of him," said a Real official to Marca.
