Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has ruled out a move to Chelsea. Chelsea's billionaire owner Roman Abramovich identified the Barcelona boss as a top target to replace sacked Andre Villas-Boas.

But now Guardiola has told those close to him he is not interested in a move to Stamford Bridge - despite the Spaniard stalling over a new two-year contract at the Nou Camp, says The Sun.

Barca's 41-year-old chief had laughed off questions linking him to the Blues post earlier this week.

But privately he was discussing with his coaches whether it was a good move.
