Ipswich Town manager Paul Lambert says it would take ‘a hell of a lot of money’ for the club to consider selling youngster Andre Dozzell.
The 20-year-old midfielder - who has been capped by England up to Under-20 level - is now heading into the final year of his Portman Road contract and is the subject of interest from various Premier League clubs, including bitter rivals Norwich City.
"If it's a Premier League club it will be for a hell of a lot of money, but I've not heard anything like that," said Lambert.
"Dozzell's been playing really well but if a Premier League club comes knocking then it would have to be a hell of a lot of money.
"You would have to spend a lot of money.
