Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge denied reports linking his club with a move for Barcelona midfielder Alexander Hleb.

The reports suggested that Bayern were lining up the Belarusian as a possible replacement for Franck Ribery, who was linked with a move away from the Allianz Arena.

"We do not have the slightest intention of making a move for him," Rummenigge told Sport on Thursday.

Hleb joined Barcelona from Arsenal last summer but rarely featured for the Spanish giants.

He had to play second-fiddle to the likes of Andres Iniesta and Seydou Keita.
