- Bidders warned off Robson
Dundee United have played down talk that skipper Barry Robson could be heading to Celtic in the January transfer window.
The 29-year-old has been a key performer for the Terrors this season, chairman Eddie Thompson wants to keep Robson at Tannadice for the foreseeable future.
He told BBC Sport: "We see Barry as part of the future of Dundee United football club.
"If any other parties wish to approach, they should know that we won't be easy to deal with and Barry Robson won't be going anywhere cheaply.
"We have a valuation of Barry, but it is a lot higher than the figures being bandied about in the media.
"People might say that he is getting on a bit, but he is very, very fit and has years to go in his career."
