Manchester City Football Club have not been in touch with Jorge Martinez.

The Blues have been heavily linked with a move for the Catania striker, who has scored eight goals in 14 matches for the Serie A strugglers this season.

However, Martinez’s agent, Daniel Delgado, has denied reports that Roberto Mancini’s side have been in touch with him about a possible summer transfer.

"I don't know anything about Manchester City," Delgado told Itasportpress.it. "We have received many proposals but right now we are not talking about anything.

“Martinez is playing for survival with Catania and it is not right to talk about the transfer market. The survival of the club depends on Jorge - if he is fit then Catania could be saved.”
