Watford manager Giuseppe Sannino insists youngster Luke O'Nien will not be leaving the club on loan this month.
Despite the Hornets having a plethora of foreign players on their books, Sannino says he wants to keep the academy product at Vicarage Road so the Hertfordshire club can maintain some English values.
"I want Luke O'Nien here," Sannino said of the promising midfielder.
"When I joined this club the spirit of belonging to Watford was important for me, even though I'm not British.
"And Luke, even though he is young, is like that. It is very satisfying to see him so strongly part of the club on and off the pitch.
"It's like (English-born Jamaican defender) Lloyd Doyley for his long service - they are two players but one is young and the other is experienced but they both represent something that all the players should have, they live their lives for Watford."
