Serbia international Nemanja Vidic has rubbished ongoing speculation linking him with a move away from Manchester United before the transfer window closes next Tuesday.

The defender's agent, Paolo Fabbri, was recently quoted as saying the 27-year-old was keen to seal a move to Barcelona, but Vidic insists he is happy at Old Trafford.

It had been suggested in the summer that a transfer was in the offing as Vidic's wife has failed to settle in Manchester.

However, the defender insisted: "I've never said anything about Barcelona or Real Madrid or AC Milan - or any club.

"I never speak about my future so I don't know why someone else does. I showed at Wigan on the pitch how happy I am at this club.

"Any fan of United only has to see how I played to know how committed I am. I spoke with my agent about this and what he said. I know about all the rumours about me but I don't want it to have an impact on the club.

"It's not a good time for my club to be hearing those rumours. It's not true that my wife is not happy.

"I don't know how that rumour came out, she's not what you'd call a famous wife. She's never spoken to a newspaper."
