Manchester City boss Mark Hughes has dismissed claims that Robinho could be sold to Barcelona.

Hughes said: "Yes, I read that about Robinho. I read his quotes - but he was just trying to answer the question from a journalist. People have then jumped on the actual wording of it.

"If you read the quote right the way through he ends it by saying he is very happy at Manchester City and he doesn't want to leave. So there you are.

"There is no indication from Robinho that he's unhappy here. None at all."
