Barcelona superstar Samuel Eto'o claims he has turned down a£ 35million move to Manchester City.
The Cameroon striker, 28, who has just 14 months left on his Barca deal, has been targeted by City and Inter Milan.
But Eto'o, one of the biggest threats to Chelsea's Champions League hopes, has told Barcelona he wants to stay at the Nou Camp and negotiate a new contract.
A pal of Eto'o said:" Samuel is happy at Barcelona and, despite the interest from England, he wants to stay." Eto'o has scored 26 goals in 31 games this season and Barca president Joan Laporta admits a new deal this summer is the club's" top priority".
