Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is coy over their pursuit of Everton midfielder Steven Pienaar.
Reports suggest Chelsea have offered £3 million for the South African.
"There are a lot of rumours, a lot of speculation and names," Ancelotti said.
"Maybe sometimes some agents are using the names to earn more money.
"Pienaar is a good player and we know him very well, but this doesn't mean we need to have him play here.
"We are thinking about central defence.
"If we find the right player for us, we have the possibility to buy."
