Witham Town chairman Tony Last has rubbished reports that Cody McDonald could follow Glen Revell to Maldon Town.
Revell made the move between the two Ryman League division one north rivals last week, where he will be reunited at Park Drive with former Witham boss Russell Tanner.
Maldon manager Tanner was keen to also add striker McDonald to his squad, following his excellent form this season for Witham.
A seven-day approach was submitted but was immediately rebuffed by Last, who has insisted the talented attacker is going nowhere.
He said: "If we had an offer for Cody and it benefited him to go we wouldn't stand in his way.
"But we turned down Maldon's offer straight away."
