Simon Kjaer

Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has cleared the air in regards to defender Simon Kjaer's departure, insisting that no club has asked for the 20-year-old Danish international.

Rumours are now circulating that Manchester United have entered the picture, and are closely monitoring the starlet. Milan and Juventus have also been linked with showing an interest in the Dane.

"Neither Manchester United, nor any other European club have asked for Kjaer," insisted the Rosanero president to Sky.

"The voices about his departure were started up by his agent, who is trying to earn some extra money."

Despite the assurances that Kjaer will not be leaving Sicily any time soon, Zamparini revealed the asking price for the defender, should anyone be interested.

"Our defender, in any case, costs €12 million, but in January, he is surely not going anywhere," Zamparini added.
