Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has said the club will not sign Celta Vigo star Nolito in the winter window.
The former Barca B player has been linked with a return to the Camp Nou -- but although Bartomeu said that would not happen, he did not rule out other arrivals.
Nolito has scored eight goals in 15 La Liga games, but Bartomeu told Cadena Ser radio: "In these past few days there has been so much talk about a player.
"But the club obviously can't -- we have a limitation on our debt, and with that we can't do anything about it."
Asked about the potential for other signings to be made, he said: "You never know."
Earlier this month, Celta Vigo sporting director Miguel Torrecilla said his club would not allow Nolito to leave this January for less than his €18 million release clause.
