TEGELEN, Netherlands, June 10 (Reuters) - Valencia midfielder Gerard Lopez played down talk of a transfer to AC Milan on Saturday, insisting: 'You never know what's going to happen.'

Reports from Italy on Friday quoted AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani as saying his club had agreed a deal to sign the promising 21-year-old from the start of the 2002 season.

But the Spanish international insisted: 'I've not signed anything with anyone.

'I don't know anything and to be honest I don't want to know. Now is not the time to talk about this.

'In football everything changes. Who knows what's going to happen tomorrow? I've got a contract with Valencia for two more seasons and I'm happy there.'

Gerard's Valencia team mate Francisco Farinos was understood to have signed for Inter Milan after the club announced the deal on their web page.
