Reports in the German press earlier this week claimed that the Blaugrana had agreed a €35m deal with the Bundesliga side for the centre-back.

“Speculation is normal in football, that doesn't bother me,” he told reporters.

“Interest in our players is a good sign. That's not the issue here.

“I'm sure that Hummels has a lot of admirers, but spreading the rumour that we've agreed a price, now that annoys me.

“There was no need, especially when it's not true.”
