Chris Smalling has been a popular name in the wild world of transfer rumours, with various outlets suggesting his days at Old Trafford are numbered.

Manchester United, however, aren't willing to part with the centre back and will reportedly reject bids for Smalling's services during the summer transfer window, sources tell Sky Sports.

Arsenal are among the teams rumoured to be interested in the England international, but their advances will be futile as the report says United are unwilling to sell Smalling to any of their Premier League rivals.

Smalling has featured regularly in Manchester United's backline for much of the season, appearing in 22 league matches and making 18 starts.

He's also managed to secure a regular spot with the national team, earning 15 caps since making his debut in 2011.
