Ramires plays down Chelsea exit talk

Reported Real Madrid and Juventus target Ramires says that he is only concentrating on playing for Chelsea.

Ramires has insisted that he knows nothing of the speculation that has linked him with a move away from Chelsea this month.

The Brazilian international has fallen down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge, which has resulted in reports that both Real Madrid and Juventus were keen on his services.

However, the 27-year-old has claimed that despite the rumours, his focus remains on performing for the Blues.

"Juventus and Real Madrid are two of the biggest teams in the world. I'm flattered that my name has been linked to them, but I know nothing of any negotiations. I'm just thinking about Chelsea and doing my job here," the London Evening Standard quotes the midfielder as saying.

Ramires joined Chelsea from Benfica in 2010 and he has gone on to make 206 appearances for the West Londoners.
