A reporter for one of the national newspapers - on holiday in Rhodes - combined business and pleasure and got himself a free holiday on the strength of the report.

A story that is absolute bollox!

The agent of Newcastle winger Gutierrez has refuted claims Olympiacos are interested in signing the Argentina international, while Panathinaikos know nothing of any facts linking them with Coloccini.

Quotes attributed to Gutierrez appeared in Greek sports daily SportDay claiming the player had been told the Greek champions wanted to buy him.

Gutierrez's agent, Pedro Bravo Jimenez: "Nobody from Olympiacos or any other club from Greece has been in touch with me about the player.

"There is no enquiry or offer. These reports are not true."
