Fiorentina attacker Federico Chiesa denies that he is in talks over a summer exit amid reported interest from Manchester United

Federico Chiesa has insisted that he is in no rush to leave Fiorentina despite speculation linking the attacker with a move to Manchester United during this summer's transfer window.

The 22-year-old, who is also thought to be interesting Chelsea and Juventus, has scored seven goals and registered five assists in 26 appearances for La Viola this season.

Fiorentina owner Rocco Commisso recently admitted that the Italy international could be sold this summer, but Chiesa has played down suggestions that he is discussions over an exit.

"There are no negotiations, there is Fiorentina," Chiesa told Corriere dello Sport. "I do not have an agent, so I speak to the club and my father (former Fiorentina and Parma striker Enrico Chiesa) is always by my side. He is like my personal assistant!

"We never even considered hiring an agent, but I don't know if that will continue in future. The rumour linking me with Francesco Totti's agency was fake news and he was the first to contact the club to clarify that.

"I've spoken so much to the president, Joe Barone and Daniele Prade over the last year, but I am concentrated only on the present. I focus on working every day, achieving immediate objectives, first and foremost securing safety. We just hope to get back to playing and the rest will follow."

Chiesa's current deal with Fiorentina is due to expire in the summer of 2022.
