Malaga president Abdullah Al Thani has denied they've sold Jony to Lazio.
The winger's contract was deposited with Italy's Lega offices earlier this week.
However, Al Thani has insisted nothing has been settled - with Malaga demanding Lazio meet Jony's €12m buyout clause.
"They are dreaming. Let's see what happens," the president posted to social media.
They are in Dream until now
