Juventus have no intention of selling Daniele Rugani during the summer transfer window, according to the defender's agent.

Agent Davide Torchia has suggested that Chelsea will not sign Juventus defender Daniele Rugani during the summer transfer window.

Rugani has been strongly linked with a move to Stamford Bridge since the end of the season, with new head coach Maurizio Sarri said to be an admirer of the Italy international.

However, despite the speculation, the 23-year-old's representative has dismissed suggestions that a deal is likely to go through in the coming weeks.

Torchia told Radio CRC: "I am happy for Sarri because no one believed he could get there and instead here he is coaching Chelsea.

"Everyone thinks that [Rugani] follows him to Chelsea, but it must be considered that Juventus also did not accept any negotiations in the past, either with Napoli nor with any other teams and has always expressed the will to keep the player and today that has not changed."

Rugani still has three years remaining on his contract with the Serie A champions.
