Dan Ticktum has been ruled out of a shock Formula E switch to the factory Porsche outfit, RacingNews365 understands.
It had been reported that Ticktum was a surprise contender to replace Antonio Felix da Costa, who has been heavily linked with a move to Jaguar.
Jagaur is searching for a replacement for Nick Cassidy, who The Race reported will switch to Stellantis.
Ticktum has been one of the surprises this season, with the Briton having worked wonders for Porsche customer outfit Cupra Kiro.
Despite using an old-Porsche powertrain, Ticktum is in contention for second in the drivers' standings following on from his first FE victory in Jakarta last time out.
The 26-year-old sits fifth in the standings on 80 points, just 23 points adrift of reigning world champion Pascal Wehrlein in second.
Whilst Ticktum has gained significant interest in the FE paddock, a Porsche spokesperson has denied to RacingNews365 that any talks over a move are taking place with him.
It is looking increasingly likely that he will remain with Cupra Kiro for Season 12, the final campaign using the current Gen3 EVO.
