Pepe has revealed that none of his Real Madrid teammates expect captain Sergio Ramos to leave the club this summer.
The Spanish defender, 29, has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United, who reportedly increased their initial £35m offer to £42m earlier in the week.
Blancos coach Rafael Benitez has previously claimed that Ramos is "100%" staying, and Pepe has echoed that confidence by revealing that he cannot see a departure materialising.
"He seems good to me. It's not going through anyone's head that Sergio won't be here with us," he told reporters in China.
"He's our captain now. I'm sure he'll be with us because he loves us and the club."
Earlier this week, Luka Modric stressed that he could also not see Ramos leaving Real, whom he joined in 2005.
