Borussia Dortmund coach Juergen Klopp has dismissed reports linking Manchester City s Edin Dzeko with a move to the Bundesliga champions.
Bosnia international Dzeko revealed in February that he would love a return to Germany the powerful centre-forward enjoyed a successful four-year spell with Wolfsburg between 2007 and 2011.
But Dortmund general manager Hans-Joachim Watzke dismissed the rumours linking the club with Dzeko on Tuesday, and Klopp has followed suit.
This is total nonsense and no more funny, Klopp told SID.
Dzeko scored 85 goals during his time in Bundesliga, and has previously said a lack of appearances for the English Premier League champions could force him to look elsewhere for regular first-team football, despite being City s top goalscorer this season with 13 goals in all competitions.
And Klopp, regardless of a large financial windfall from Dortmund s run in the Champions League this term, insisted a move for the striker, who cost City 27 million pounds, would not be feasible for his club.
Klopp, who previously described Dzeko as extraordinary , told a press conference on Thursday: Dzeko is a good player but he is sadly out of our possibilities.
Dortmund s first-choice striker Robert Lewandowski has been linked with a move away from Westfalenstadion, with Manchester United and Bayern Munich reportedly admirers of the Poland international.
