Alessandro Diamanti quells Juventus rumours

Bologna captain Alessandro Diamanti has insisted that he will not leave the Italian outfit this summer.

Reports have suggested that Juventus are preparing a move for the 30-year-old, who has scored 16 goals in 68 appearances for his current club.

However, the Italian international has dismissed speculation that he could seek a new team before the start of the Serie A campaign.

"I read so many inventions on my behalf. I'm the leader and the captain of Bologna," he told the Corriere di Bologna.

AC Milan have also been linked with his services.
