Inter Milan president Moratti cools Barcelona rumours for Handanovic

Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti insists Samir Handanovic is not for sale. The goalkeeper has been linked with Barcelona.

"I'm not aware of any offer from Barcelona," the President told the Corriere dello Sport. "Handanovic is a pillar of this club and we'll look to keep him."

When asked whether he could be tempted to sell if Barca offered Alexis Sanchez as part of the deal, Moratti didn't seem too keen.

"He's an excellent player, but he'd be hard to sign," the oil baron continued. "And, anyhow, others make the difference.

"The construction of the team is fundamental for us, to have a defence that doesn't concede goals because we've always had scorers up front."

 Should Moratti encourage Barca to make this offer? Give us your shout below...
