Antonio Conte swerves Nani speculation

Juventus head coach Antonio Conte opted against discussing reports earlier today that have linked his club with Manchester United winger Nani.

Recent speculation had claimed that Juve had made the 27-year-old their major transfer target for the January window.

However, when asked about the rumours, Conte insisted that recruitment was not part of his job.

"Nani? I'm the coach. For these things there are [director Beppe] Marotta and [sporting director Fabio] Paratici," he told reporters.

Nani, who joined Man United in the summer of 2007, signed a new five-year contract at Old Trafford in September of this year.
