Marseille president Vincent Labrune has cooled talk linking Remy with a possible move to Newcastle, despite rumours the player has already told the Magpies he will sign.
Newcastle are in pole-position to sign the French international when the transfer window reopens next month, but as well as Spurs, Queens Park Rangers and West Ham also credited with an interest.
Remy has struggled to hold down a regular place in the Marseille side this season, but Labrune insists he is not trying to sell the 25-year-old.
Vincent Labrune: "I'm not looking for a way out for Loic.
"I like him, and I know his potential.
"Our finances are healthy.
"I don't have to sell this winter, we're rather in a position to buy one or two players to help continue the best start to a season the club has made in nearly 20 years."
