Fulham say they have not had any enquiries for unsettled striker Dimitar Berbatov.
The Bulgarian forward has been strongly linked with a move to Arsenal this month as Arsene Wenger seeks back-up to his first choice forward Olivier Giroud.
Earlier this month, Barbatov's agent said his client was keen to leave Fulham while the player himself has done little to quell speculation, even posting a video with the title 'Berbatov could fire Arsenal to the title' on his Facebook page.
However, a Fulham spokesman today said there had been no contact.
Fulham manager Rene Meulensteen added: "No. There is no problem at all, he is a Fulham player."
The Gunners will have an opportunity to get a closer look at the former Manchester United forward on Saturday when Fulham visit the Emirates.
It will also be a chance for Berbatov, whose contract runs out at the end of the season, to show off his talents. However, Meulensteen insists the 32-year-old will be focused on his current club.
"I know how he is and Berba sees this as an important game against Arsenal."

Arsenal - January transfer targets Karim Benzema - Wenger is a long time admirer of Real Madrid's French striker, although he would not be a cheap option.

Arsenal - January transfer targets Winston Reid - While a West Ham defender from New Zealand might sound an unlikely target for Arsenal, their defence is a serious injury away from looking a little threadbare and Reid could provide value-for-money cover at the back. Getty Images
Arsenal - January transfer targets Xabi Alonso - While the free transfer of Mathieu Flamini has helped, Arsenal still look a little lightweight in the centre of the park. The cultured Alonso would certainly improve things. Getty Images
Arsenal - January transfer targets Ilkay Gundogan - Another luxury purchase for the Gunners and with interest from other Premier League clubs and Arsenal's more pressing needs in other areas of the pitch, it seems an unlikely move. Getty Images
Arsenal - January transfer targets Antonio Sanabria - Arsenal are rumoured to already have a deal in place bringing the Paraguayan starlet to the club from Barcelona. If so then they have secured themselves a fantastic player. Getty Images
Arsenal - January transfer targets Javier Hernandez - With Hernandez seemingly growing increasingly frustrated with a lack of first team opportunities at Man United, Arsenal could pounce for the proven Premier League goalscorer. It does however seem unlikely that Moyes would sell to a rival. Getty Images
Arsenal - January transfer targets Kurt Zouma - Wanted by London rivals Chelsea as well, Zouma is a highly-rated young defender who could provide some much needed cover. Can Wenger get the better of Mourinho in the transfer market this time? Getty Images

Arsenal - January transfer targets Edin Dzeko - Despite scoring fairly consistently in his time at the club, there is a feeling that Dzeko somehow doesn't quite fit and he struggles to hold down a first team place as a consequence. A move to Arsenal would surely give him more playing time but it seems unlikely City would sell to a rival. Getty Images
