Bournemouth goalkeeper Neil Moss says he turned down the opportunity to leave the club on loan in favour of fighting for his place with the Cherries.
The 30-year-old has only played a bit-part role this season after breaking his leg, but is now back to full fitness and is looking for games.
Several clubs were reported to be showing an interest during the transfer window, but Moss says he would prefer to stay at Dean Court rather than go and be an understudy elsewhere.
"There have been one or two things that have come up, but not anything that would take me away," Moss revealed. "I don't need the games in terms of going to get experience.
"Clubs are not going to bring in a short-term keeper above their own goalkeeper.
"They don't want to upset their own players to bring someone else in loan if he's only there for a month or so.
"But if something did come up that was good and interesting to me, then I would have to give it some serious thought."
