Inter Milan have quashed reports suggesting that they have reached an agreement with Barcelona over star hit-man Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
A statement on the club website read: "During the transfer window, a headline in a newspaper is enough to transform groundless rumours into truth,"
"This is what has happened today after the article published in Barcelona newspaper El Mundo Deportivo about a presumed deal between FC Internazionale and the Catalan club.
"Besides being completely unfounded, the presumed deal seems remote from any logic, even to the eyes of neutral observers. The report is, therefore, groundless."
