Liverpool custodian Pepe Reina has declared that only a very large sum of money will tempt the club to sell a player.
The Spanish keeper's compatriot, Xabi Alonso, has been linked to Real Madrid as Florentino Perez continues his strengthening of the Merengues.
Real's returning president confirmed reported interest in the Liverpool midfielder and has raised alarm bells at Anfield after claiming that a deal for the ex-Real Sociedad man was just a matter of time.
However, Reina, who joined the Premier League outfit in 2005, has now indicated that Liverpool are not looking to sell in the summer.
"I believe that the mister [Benitez] has his mind very clear and his idea in these moments is to not sell," Reina told EFE.
"He wants to continue with a team he has known for a long time, with an already fundamented base and where we know almost everything.
"Whoever wants to touch this team or this structure [Liverpool] will have to pay a lot of money."
