Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas has dismissed rumours linking him with a big-money move to Manchester United.

Reports in the Spanish media have suggested that the 28-year-old is a major target for the Red Devils, but Casillas insists that he knows nothing about such a deal.

He told AS: "There is absolutely nothing, neither from United nor another club. Neither my agent nor Madrid have informed me of any offer and nobody has called me either.

"It's speculation, which is what happens when the transfer market is open.

"I have a contract with Madrid until 2017 and what I'm thinking about is completing it. Everybody knows Madrid are in my heart and that I'm a White until I die.

"I joined Real Madrid as a child and Madrid is my home.

"The fans should be calm, there is nothing at all from Manchester United or any other club. I'm from Spain and from Madrid, and that's it."
