BERLIN, May 5 (Reuters) - German Finance Minister Peer Steinbrueck on Monday dismissed as rumour reports that Deutsche Telekom AG (DTEGn.DE: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) may be interested in buying U.S. mobile operator Sprint Nextel Corp (S.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz).

"I think it's a rumour," Steinbrueck told reporters in Berlin.
