Reports continue to suggest highly-rated centre-half Upson could be on the move before the transfer window slams shut.
A number of Barclays Premier League clubs have all been linked with a move for the England international at some stage.
No formal approach has been lodged, but that has done little to stop the ongoing rumours.
Upson himself has admitted he would be willing to move on in order to ease the financial difficulties currently being experienced by the Hammers.
Zola, though, claims he is under no pressure to sell and has instead signalled his intention to bring further fresh faces on board before the end of the month.
"As far as I'm concerned we're looking to buy players not sell them," said the Italian tactician following West Ham's 2-0 victory at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.
"We've had no offers for Matthew and want to keep him.
"I think he's enjoying his football and looking forward to this season as it's going to be vital for his career."
