Juventus
boss Massimiliano Allegri says there is "nothing" in reports linking him
with Chelsea.
The 48-year-old Italian has been touted as a possible successor to Guus
Hiddink at Stamford Bridge, with the Dutchman in interim charge of the Blues
until the end of the season.
Allegri's former manager Giovanni Galeone said earlier on Tuesday the
Italian will become Chelsea's new boss in the summer after receiving a
"fantastic" offer from Roman Abramovich.
However, Allegri, who has won the Serie A title with both AC Milan and
Juventus, has dismissed speculation he may be on his way to the reigning
Premier League champions.
Speaking at a youth tournament on Tuesday, he told
Sky in Italy:
"There's nothing to it. I cannot either confirm or deny something that
doesn't exist.
"I want this matter over and done with now. What's important for me right
now is to get to the end of the season with Juventus and try and win some
silverware."
Juventus have won 17 of their last 18 matches in all competitions and are
two points behind Serie A leaders Napoli, who they play on Saturday.
They are also through to the last 16 of the Champions League, where they
face Bayern Munich, and in the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia, with Inter
Milan their opponents.
