// A bit of a hack but it works// The article snippet is wrapped onto a second line, even when #article-sub is emptyif( $("div#article-sub").children().length == 0 ) {$("div#article-sub").remove();} Maicon's agent has rubbished reports linking the Inter Milan full-back with a move to Manchester City.[LNB] The Brazilian's future has been the subject of speculation for some time and fresh rumours have suggested he could be on his way to Eastlands.[LNB]However, the player's representative Antonio Caliendo insists there is no truth in the transfer talk as Maicon remains committed to the Serie A champions.[LNB]"Every day there's a story linking Maicon to a different club," Caliendo told tuttomercatoweb.it.[LNB]"First it was Real Madrid, then Manchester United and now City.[LNB]"I think Maicon has already reiterated his wish to remain at Inter."[LNB]UnthinkableMaicon is a key player for the Nerazzurri and under contract until 2013, so Caliendo does not believe it would make sense for him to join a club that is not playing in the UEFA Champions League. [LNB]"If the likes of Real or United knock on the door then you consider the eventual offers," he explained.[LNB]"But we are talking about a top player who is fighting for the league title, the Champions League, the best player in his role, what would he be doing at City?[LNB]"I think it would be unthinkable, let's not joke about it."[LNB]
