Oscar denies Chelsea deal

Brazilian starlet Oscar has quashed rumours that he has signed for Chelsea.

Reports on Tuesday claimed that the Blues had beaten London rivals Tottenham Hotspur to the signature of the 20-year-old.

However, the Internacional attacking-midfielder, who came to prominence in 2011 after scoring a hat-trick in the FIFA Under-20 World Cup final, has insisted that the reports aren't true.

"I'm still here and I have no news of Chelsea," Oscar told Brazilian newspaper O Globo.

"I know there are clubs interested in Europe, but so far nothing has arrived."

Oscar has been capped six times by Brazil at senior level.
