Sky Sports News understands Tottenham Hotspur's David Bentley will not be joining Manchester City before the transfer deadline.
It had been suggested City could make a move for the midfielder before 5pm on Tuesday.
Further reports have also claimed a swap deal involving City's Martin Petrov could be in the offing.
But City have confirmed they have no intention of making any further signings this summer.
Bentley has endured a difficult time at White Hart Lane, with manager Harry Redknapp criticising him after his recent arrest for drink driving.
The 25-year-old has played just five minutes of Premier League football this season.
