Manchester City has not made a lucrative bid for Lazio midfielder Mauro Zarate according to the players agent.
Currently on loan from Qatari club Al-Sadd, Zarate has been linked with several English clubs in the past few months but a move to the Premier League looks increasingly unlikely.
"The English side never offered 30million (£27.2m)," said Zarate's brother and agent Sergio.
"It's something that's also surfaced in Italy but for the moment it's not true.
"Mauro, of whom all we know the value, is really happy in Rome."
