De Boer, who has been in charge of the Amsterdam giants for two and a half years, is the latest name to be tipped for the Citizens hot-seat as speculation continues to swirl around the future of Roberto Mancini.
And De Boer, who is on course to lift the Eredivisie title with Ajax, admits he is unaware that he is a candidate for the job.
He told Dutch paper De Telegraaf: "Personally, I have not heard anything from Manchester. If you read something, of course it flatters your ego."
He told the same publication: "I'm not afraid at all. Maybe if they [Manchester City] come for De Boer in two years.
The club are keen to tie down assistant manager Dennis Bergkamp, who has been linked with a job working for Arsenal's academy, and academy coach Wim Jonk to new long-term deals.
