Wesley Sneijder has been told that he will not be picked for Inter as long as his contract dispute with the club continues.

The Dutch playmaker has been asked to take a paycut by the Italian side and director Marco Branca has said that the 28-year-old will continue to play no part for the Nerazzurri as long as the new deal remains unsigned.

"We have given Sneijder time to think about our offer and during this situation we will not select him for games," said Branca.

The former Real Madrid man has not featured for Andrea Stramaccioni's side since September.
