Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has refused to comment on the club’s reported interest in Roma striker Edin Dzeko.
The Blues are believed to be keen to sign a target man in the January transfer window, with English pair Andy Carroll and Peter Crouch also having been linked to the west Londoners.
Conte was asked about the link to former Manchester City forward Dzeko at his Friday press conference at the club’s Cobham training ground and replied: “As you know very well, I think it’s not right to talk about players of other teams.
“I’m not interested in it. There is a transfer market in this period and if something happens you are the first to know the news.”
