Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has declared his annoyance at reports over the future of defender Mats Hummels.
The BVB boss admitted that speculation about his players was normal, but said that he was unhappy about reports suggesting the club had agreed a fee with Barcelona.
"I'm sure that Hummels has a lot of admirers, but spreading the rumour that we've agreed a price, now that annoys me," Klopp told reporters.
"There was no need, especially when it's not true. Speculation is normal in football, that doesn't bother me.
"Interest in our players is a good sign. That's not the issue here."
Dortmund are currently second in the Bundesliga.
