Benfica midfielder Javi Garcia has not received any offer from Manchester United, the player's agent has declared.
The 24-year-old has been strongly linked with a new challenge at the end of the season, with United and AC Milan both understood to be keeping tabs on the player.
A report in the Daily Mirror on Monday claimed that Javi Garcia's representative was in talks with the Premier League champions with a view to a summer switch, but the Spanish agent has rejected such stories.
"I cannot say anything, no one has talked to me," Manuel Garcia Quillon told TSF. "There are no offers, just rumours."
The 25-year-old, who has a release clause of €30 million, is contracted to Benfica until the summer of 2014.
