Starlet rejects Spurs rumoursDerby County youngster Giles Barnes says he will not leave the club to join Tottenham next season.
Giles, 18, said: "I have no intention of leaving Derby.
"I want to play in the Premiership, just like any other player, but now I can play at the highest level with Derby.
"And anyway, I have three years left to go on my contract.
"Tom Huddlestone and I were in digs together when we were in the academy and we still talk now and again on the phone.
"But it was Arsenal, and not Tottenham, who were my favourite club when I was growing up and so I am looking forward to the chance of playing for Derby at the Emirates Stadium."
