German giants Bayern Munich have denied they are interested in signing Dutch forward Ryan Babel in the New Year.
It was reported over the weekend that Babel was going to join the Bundesliga giants on loan until the summer with a view to a permanent move, but they have denied that is the case.
Bayern director of sport, Christian Nerlinger, told Liga Total: "I can assure you that we're not interested in bringing Babel to Munich. I know nothing about such a transfer and that means that nothing is going on.
"This has nothing to do with Babel's qualities, but we have plenty of options in his position. Both Ivica Olic and Mario Gomez are in superb form and we don't need another attacker."
