Nolito: 'No contact with Barcelona, Manchester City'

Nolito declares that he is fully focused on helping Spain at Euro 2016 and is not thinking about his club future with Celta Vigo.

Celta Vigo striker Nolito has insisted that he has not opened talks with Barcelona or Manchester City, amid suggestions that the Spain international is torn between the two clubs.

It was claimed last week that the Citizens led the way to sign the 29-year-old, who has a release clause in the region of £14m inserted into his contract.

While honoured to have been linked with moves to both clubs, Nolito claims that helping Spain to Euro 2016 success over the coming weeks is his only focus at this moment in time.

"I'm proud that two great coaches like Luis Enrique and Pep Guardiola are interested," he told La Vanguardia. "I'm lucky that they have me in mind; it gives you a boost. But I'm focusing on the Euros and nothing else. I haven't spoken to either of them."

Nolito found the net 12 times for Celta Vigo last season, earning him a call-up to the Spain side where he has since impressed.
