Barcelona have dismissed reports that they have agreed to sign David Trezeguet from Juventus.
Speculation in Spain this morning had claimed that a fee had been finalised between the two clubs.
But the Nou Camp outfit have today rubbished whispers that the striker will arrive in an £11m deal.
"Trezeguet is a player that interests us but we haven’t sorted out anything," Vice-president Ferran Soriano stated.
"There is no point in finalising terms with the player without first talking with the club that owns him."
Trezeguet is expected to be sold by the Turin giants at the end of this season as his contract expires in 2005.
Talks over an extension at the Delle Alpi have taken place but he has yet to renew his current agreement.
Juve transfer guru Luciano Moggi has today revealed that the player does fancy a switch to Spain but a sale may not occur.
It is also believed that Premiership giants Chelsea are very interested in the former Monaco ace.
