"Yes, we were offered money for Chopra but it was far less than what we owe so good business says keep him rather than sell him," said Jones.
Jones added: "If you sell him, all you are doing is creating a mass of trouble for yourself.
"One - you still owe money on a player that you have let go. And two - if you try and buy someone in and you haven't got a profit on that player, how do you move in the market?"
Despite being unable to register new players Jones is working hard keeping his sqaud together and pre paring to build when he is allowed.
Jones said: "We've kept the players and unless it is a knock-out punch for any one of them, they are staying and we want them to stay.
"We are trying to build and not dismantle the squad.
"So unless it is an unbelievable offer for somebody we will try and keep hold of them."
So far Joe Ledley and Mark Kennedy are the only senior players that have left the club outside of those players actually released by Jones.
