Barcelona vice-president Josep Maria Bartomeu has dismissed speculation that the club have held discussions with Arsenal over the signing of Robin van Persie.
The Holland international's contract expires in 2013 and so far discussions are yet to begin regarding an extension.
That has led reports linking Van Persie with a host of clubs, including Barcelona.
However, Bartomeu has insisted that his club have made no contact with the Gunners.
"Nothing exists with RVP," Bartomeu told reporters. "It's rumours that appear in the papers. We've not contacted Arsenal, nor his agent.
"Our focus is now on the Liga and Copa del Rey.
"It's necessary to be focused on the task at hand and not be distracted by the transfer market."
Van Persie joined the Gunners in 2004.
