EWOOD chief Graeme Souness has dismissed reports of a fall-out with England Under 21 star David Dunn.
Reports in the national press over the weekend claimed there had been a bust-up between the pair with Chelsea, Newcastle and Liverpool all ready to step in with an offer.
However, Souness has insisted the 22-year-old midfielder is not for sale and has quashed all talk of a rift: "It's all nonsense -- we get on great" said Souness.
"He has a chance of being a real player. He plays in the same position that I did and I think I can help him and he thinks I can help him.
"He knows he's a young man who's got a lot to learn and if he listens he will learn.
"I'm his biggest fan and his biggest critic -- and that's the way it should be.
"He's not available and he won't be as long as I'm here.
"It would have to be a ridiculous amount, so ridiculous it would have to be near £20 million -- and I'm his agent if that happens."
Dunn himself also stressed again that he is happy at Blackburn despite being left out by Souness in recent weeks.
"There's been no falling out between us" said Dunn.
