Stoke boss Hughes reacts to Liverpool, Everton Butland rumours

Published on: 01 December 2015

Stoke City boss Mark Hughes says Jack Butland is not for sale.

The goalkeeper is being linked with Everton and Liverpool.

"Jack's going nowhere," Hughes said. "He's progressing well but he's very early into his career development as a number one keeper. People are aware of him - and they have been for a long time.

"Jack forced his way into the England squad when he was 19 but he needs a season-in-season-out of week-in-week-out in the Premier League. He's had a great career progression, every step he's taken he's dealt with.

"Now it's about consolidating himself in a very good Premier League team. That's the challenge for him."
