The agent of Olympique Marseille playmaker Mathieu Valbuena has hinted at interest from Manchester United.
Valbuena is under consideration at United as manager Sir Alex Ferguson seeks a replacement for Paul Scholes.
"There are 12 matches left and now is not the time to discuss the future of Mathieu," said Christophe Hutteau, "It would be a total disrespect to Olympique de Marseille and the rest of his teammates."
He added: "Mathieu has much affection for l'OM, though clearly to be linked to clubs like Barcelona or Manchester United is very promising."
