Cirigliano dismisses United, City talk

River Plate midfielder Ezequiel Cirigliano has rubbished speculation linking him with a move away from the club.

Cirigliano has been the subject of reported interest from a number of sides in England and Spain in recent days, but the 20-year-old insists that he intends to remain in Buenos Aires.

"I don't know where the information comes from," he told devotoradio.com.ar. "First I heard that it was Manchester City, then Manchester United that were interested in me, but there has never been any proposal.

"I also heard that I was wanted in Spanish football, even that I had an agreement in place with Real Madrid, but that isn't true.

"I want to stay in Argentina and at River."

Cirigliano has been capped 13 times by Argentina at Under-20 level.
