United boss Sir Alex Ferguson tried to cool talk of their interest in the player after saying he knew nothing of negotiations between the clubs.

"But there are no talks, and so we are not thinking of changing."
Sneijder is likely to play for his side in this weekend's Supercoppa Italiana clash against city rivals AC Milan in Beijing.
