Norwich City football chief Stuart Webber has warned big clubs off their top players this summer.

Speaking about the speculation surrounding City's young talent, Webber insists he won't allow the club to be bullied in negotiations.

“We've set the stool out with how we negotiate with the James Maddison deal. Anyone who's going to pick up the phone to me and ask for one of our players knows they aren't going to tickle me and it's not going to be easy.

“All of our players are on long-term contracts. To leave here won't be easy for any player if we don't want them to. It shouldn't be.

“I have to do what's right for the club. I can't stand bullies and that's something I strong disagree with in life. We will never get bullied by another club. Whether they think they're bigger than us or not.

“We're not having that. What happens is I go into stubborn mode and I go into being an a******* mode and I don't care because I know how hard everyone works at this club and how much it means to the community and the supporters."
