Chiellini dismisses Real Madrid interest

Giorgio Chiellini has pledged his future to Juventus by claiming that he would not consider a move to Real Madrid.

According to a number of reports, Real are considering a move for the Italian defender this summer, but the 28-year-old has dismissed talks of a move.

"If Real Madrid make me an offer, it wouldn't go through my head at this time to leave Juventus," Chiellini told reporters at a press conference. "Right now that there is a project on the launching pad.

[Giuseppe] Marotta said it clearly: this is not a club that sells. Rather it is a club that wants to build an important cycle. Think about it: in [Antonio] Conte's first year, who would ever have imagined Juventus becoming champions of Italy? We have forged ahead.

"Now that we have added a few more pieces, now that we are more solid, we aim to continue on this path."

Chiellini joined Juventus from Fiorentina in 2005.
