Laporta - Eto'o not City-bound

04 May 2009 13:37
Barcelona president Joan Laporta has reiterated that no discussions were held with Manchester City over the sale of Samuel Eto'o. Laporta met with City chief executive Garry Cook last week and rumours spread suggesting the duo were looking to strike a deal over striker Eto'o. However, City have stressed that the meeting served to build relations between the two clubs, and now Laporta has echoed that stance. He said: "I was in London to discuss professional issues but we did not talk with anyone from Manchester City about the possible transfer of Eto'o. "It's not about money. Barcelona are not a selling club, we buy players, we do not sell."
