Kevin De Bruyne denies talk of an imminent move to Chelsea.

Genk midfielder Kevin De Bruyne has played down talk of a move from the Belgian champions to Chelsea.

The youngster has been confirmed as a target for the Premier League side, with Genk officials making trips to London to discuss a possible deal.

Sources in Belgium have suggested that a contract is ready to be signed by De Bruyne, with Genk then keeping him on loan for the remainder of the season. However, the 20-year-old has denied that a switch is imminent.

"Chelsea have not phoned," said the highly-rated De Bruyne.

"I don't know if the clubs are talking to each other. In any event, Genk have not yet said anything to me.

"It's not my last game. I am 100% sure I'll stay until the end of the season."

De Bruyne has been capped twice for the Belgian national side.
