Atletico Madrid chief executive Miguel Angel Gil Marin has denied media reports in Spain that a deal has already been struck that will see their highly-rated young goalkeeper David De Gea move to Manchester United this summer.
According to the reports, crediting Spanish radio station Onda Cero, agent Jorge Mendes had travelled to England and reached an agreement with United that will see the 20-year-old De Gea join the Red Devils for a fee of €20 million.
However, speaking to Spanish newspaper AS, Atletico's chief executive Angel Gil said: "Mendes is in England, but it is for nothing related to De Gea. He doesn't have any power from Atletico to negotiate for the player.
"At the end of the season we will see if (De Gea) he goes or if he remains. If he wants to go, we will refer to his buy-out clause. As of today, Atletico count on him for next season."
