Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon has insisted Frank Lampard and John Terry are not for sale as the club tries to secure them on new deals.

The pair have two years left on their contracts and, while not naming the players, Kenyon said: "We are in discussions with them.

"We're committed and want to keep them. They are very professional and I'm sure they want to stay," told BBC Sport.

"It would be nice to get them done ahead of next season."

Lampard has been linked with a move to Barcelona and, along with Terry, they have failed to ease fears over their future by putting pen to paper.

Kenyon spoke broadly about the need to secure the club's best players to safeguard Chelsea's progress.

And he added: "These are players who have made it clear they all want to stay at Chelsea and we've made it clear we want them to stay.

"We've had no offers for any of our players and if we did we would reject them.

"This is all about doing the right thing for Chelsea in the long term and hopefully part of that is ensuring these guys sign new contracts."
