Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has quashed talk the club could be set to loan out goalkeeper Joe Hart in January.
Hart has fallen out of favour at the Etihad Stadium following a number of high-profile blunders, but he will play in tomorrow's Champions League match against Viktoria Plzen.
It has been suggested that Pellegrini could look to send Hart out on loan in the winter window.
But the former Real Madrid coach has wasted little time in denying that.

"There is a lot of news about six or seven goalkeepers that we want to buy but it is not true", Pellegrini said in a press conference, relayed by the BBC.
"There is no chance that Joe Hart could go out of this squad in January."
Manchester City have been linked with moving for Real Madrid custodian Iker Casillas in the summer, as Hart struggles to convince Pellegrini he is the right man to trust between the sticks.
