The agent of Inter Milan fullback Martin Montoya has again ruled out a return to Barcelona.

Montoya is battling to find a place in coach Roberto Mancini's first team.

“It's all nonsense," Juan de Dios Carrasco insisted, speaking to Calciomercato.

“Montoya is adapting to Italian football, it's different to Spanish football and Barça. He needs time to become an important player.

“He's calm, and was very happy about the win in the derby [against Milan on Sunday]. The team is top of the League and Martin is just thinking about working hard to fit into the team both tactically and physically.

“He's very happy in Milan. He's happy with his surroundings, the club and the Coach [Roberto Mancini].

“They talk a lot, and he tells him to stay calm."
