Barcelona denies deal with Ribery

Asked about the new rumours linking Bayern Munich wing attacker and French international Franck Ribéry (25) with a move to Barcelona (read more here), Barcelona sports director Txiki Begiristain made clear to journalists that there's no contract deal at this moment:

"It's true that Ribéry is an absolute quality player but there's no deal. The first thing we would always do is talk with the club."

Barcelona president Joan Laporta is meanwhile quoted by French sports paper L'Equipe as also denying the transfer: "We didn't talk with his agent or with the entourage of the player. If we would decide one day to make an attempt, we will directly talk with his club."

I think we should try to purchase him, he really can fill the void on the left hand side. Moreover he is a match winner. I dont see a reason why not to purchase him.
