Barca dismiss Dida rumours

Barcelona have dismissed reports linking them with Milan keeper Dida.

Dida's current deal expires in June and he has yet to put pen-to-paper on a new contract.

Speculation in Spain has suggested Barca would be interested in Dida to provide competition for Victor Valdes, but sport director Txiki Beguiristain has reacted angrily to the rumours.

"We are not interested in Dida and we are very unhappy about these rumours," he said.

"He has never been on our agenda."

Milan president Silvio Berlusconi, meanwhile, has said he still dreams of signing Ronaldinho from Barcelona.

Berlusconi feels Milan would be favourites to snap him up if he ever decided to move on, as Kaka and Ronaldo are already in place at the San Siro.

"I don't believe all his declarations of commitment," said Berlusconi.

"I reaffirm that should Ronaldinho leave the Spanish side, Milan will be in pole position to sign him."
