The agent of Lazio defender Modibo Diakite insists there's been no contact with Juventus.

Diakite is off contract in June.

"I have to be honest, I've never heard from Juventus," agent Ulisse Savini told TMW. "The clubs who wanted him in the summer were Genoa, Fiorentina, Bordeaux, Terek Grozny and other foreign sides.

"January? Genoa are a possibility because we know that the player can't remain sidelined for a year. However, there are no talks going on right now."
