Gaitan, 24, has been linked with a move to the Premier League, with Manchester United and Liverpool said to be keen on the Argentina international.

His representative, however, has claimed there have been no concrete bids for the player who signed for Benfica from Boca Juniors in 2010.

"Gaitan is a Benfica player, and he is happy with them," Jose Iribarren told the Record. "I do not know of any offer on the table, I have only seen what was written in the newspapers.

"If an offer appears we would study it, but the intention of Nico is to be with Benfica next season."
