The agent of Palmeiras attacker Gabriel Jesus has denied rumours that Manchester United have made a bid for the player.
Sport Witness had earlier cited sources in Brazil, claiming United have made a bid for the player and were expecting an answer.
Sport witness also quoted sources in Italy that Juventus are in pole position to sign the forward, a news that was also reported by Goal.
The player's agent Cristiano Simoes, has however come out to deny the United rumours.
"There wasn't even a contact , at least not with me or the player.
"Well, United are a world football force . Everyone dreams of playing there , but the thing is not so simple. We need to analyse aspects regarding the adaptation to food, climate, language , social interaction, among other things."
From the way his agent sounded, the player would consider a move to United.
The player reportedly has a release clause of €40m, but this will be reduced to €24m for any of the following five clubs: Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, PSG and Man United.
The 19 year old has scored three times in his last five appearances for his Brazilian club.
