Internacional president Alessandro Barcellos insists Yuri Alberto will only leave on their terms.
Everton and Manchester City are interested in the 20 year-old.
“He is a highly sought and harassed player, spoken about by clubs around the world," Barcellos said.
“We are making an effort to keep Yuri Alberto. He is a distinguished player. Our expectation is he will stay with us, even though he is aware of the financial difficulties [the club is facing].
“He is a player who has an important value but Internacional will do everything possible and impossible to ensure that, if he leaves the club one day, he will leave for a fee that has a positive impact on our finances."
