Brazilian plays down Barca rumours

Bayern Munich defender Lucio has rejected rumours linking him with a move away from the club. The Brazilian international was strongly linked with a transfer away from Bayern earlier this season with Barcelona thought to keen on acquiring his services. The 29-year-old, who has two years to run on his current contract at Bayern, says he has no plans to leave Bavaria. "I have made my decision, I have no reason to leave here, I will stay with Bayern," Lucio told Bild. The news is a boost for Bayern ahead of their Uefa Cup semi-final with Zenit St Petersburg on Thursday.
