AC Milan transfers chief Ariedo Braida has poured cold water on claims of a deal for Santos star Paulo Henrique Ganso.
Santos are digging in their heels and refusing to sell the young attacker.
"At this moment in time it is all fantasy," Braida stated. "He may arrive one day in the future, but he won't be with us next season."
Santos sporting director Conceicao also remarked: "I will repeat what we have said in recent months.
"We have received no official offer from an Italian club for Ganso.
"And even if one is made in the future then we are not even going to take it into consideration. The boy is our leading player and he is not available for transfer."
