Sunderland have rejected a bid from Crystal Palace for full-back Patrick van Aanholt, according to Black Cats boss David Moyes.
Palace are understood to have tabled an offer in the region of £7million for the Dutchman, who worked with manager Sam Allardyce during his time on Wearside last season.
However, the Black Cats are in no mood to do business.
Asked if a bid had been turned down, Moyes replied: "Yes, that's correct.
"We have actually had a few bids for quite a lot of our players because we have got some good players here and maybe people think we could be easy pickings.
