Roberto Di Matteo remains coy on Chelsea's interest in "very talented" Brazil midfielder Oscar.

Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo has hailed Brazilian starlet Oscar as a "talented" midfielder but refuses to admit the club's interest in the playmaker.

The Champions League winners have been constantly linked with the 20-year-old, with some reports claiming that the London outfit have agreed a £25m fee for the midfielder.

"I can tell you that he's not a Chelsea player so it's difficult for me to talk about a player that doesn't belong to us," said Di Matteo.

"I know there has been speculation we are interested in this player and in due course if there is anything to announce we will do. All I would say is that he is a very young talented midfield player."

Oscar is currently in London preparing to compete for Brazil at the Olympic Games.
