Sevilla coach Jorge Sampaoli refused to be drawn on reports linking him to the Barcelona job after they kept up their La Liga title push with a 1-0 win over Athletic Bilbao. The Argentine claimed he had not even thought about it and was fully focussed on the fortunes of the Andalusian club and their own bid for title glory. "The Barcelona job? That question has no answer because it doesn't exist,'' Sampaoli said of the possibility after the win over Athletic in quotes reported by Marca. "I have no idea what is being said, at this stage of the season to speak of candidates doesn't make sense. "I am connected with this sporting project at Sevilla to death.'' And Sampaoli hinted that talks are planned to extend his contract with Sevilla. "We still haven't met with representatives to express our future projects within the structure of the club,'' he added. "But to be sure, there are intentions to do so.''
