Agent denies Lavezzi link to Barcelona

Ezequiel Lavezzi's agent denied on Thursday the Argentine is a target for Spanish champions Barcelona. The 25-year-old is enjoying another spectacular season with Napoli, pushing the transfer rumour mill into overdrive. But the Argentine's agent Alejandro Mazzoni told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli that there's nothing in the Barca speculaton. "Lavezzi wants to take Napoli into the Champions League and maybe even play against (Lionel) Messi's Barcelona," he said. "That would be great for the city and for everyone. "Pocho (Lavezzi) and his team-mates want to play in the Champions League and there are just four games left (in the league). "I haven't heard anything (from Barca). I was told things had been written on the internet but you can't trust what's on the internet." Napoli are third in Serie A and five points ahead of fourth placed Lazio. If they maintain their position they will go straight into the Champions League group stages next season. They have not played in Europe's premier club competition since 1990/91 when Diego Maradona was still at the club.
