Napoli's Lavezzi not joining Man City or AC Milan says agent

Napoli striker Ezequiel Lavezzi will not be on his way to Manchester City or AC Milan this January says his agent.

Reports emanating in Italy suggest the 26-year old Argentine forward could be on his way to City or Milan on a winter transfer but his representative, Alejandro Mazzoni, insists he is not about to depart Naples.

"There is no truth in reports linking Lavezzi with Milan," he told Corriere dello Sport.

"Lavezzi's name has never come up in the conversations I've had with (AC Milan sporting director Ariedo) Braida.

"Manchester City have never called me to enquire about Lavezzi.

"Lavezzi is at Napoli and wants to remain here.

"I don't think it's right to discuss a possible move for Lavezzi right now as he must only concentrate on Napoli's season and the Champions League."
