Real Madrid will not allow apparent Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur target Alvaro Morata to leave the club on loan in January, according to a report in Spain.
The North London duo are both eager to add striking reinforcements when the transfer window reopens, and were rumoured to be tracking the 21-year-old.
A report on Tuesday claimed that the Gunners had already taken steps to sign Morata on a temporary deal until the end of the season, speculation that Arsene Wenger has flatly denied.
According to Marca, neither Arsenal nor Spurs should consider an approach for the Spanish Under-21 international, as Madrid want him to compete for a first-team place at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Morata has scored four goals in 27 Los Blancos appearances, but only four of those have been starts.
