Chelsea have warned Roma they won't be held to ransom over Radja Nainggolan.
The Belgium midfielder is a priority transfer target for incoming Chelsea manager Antonio Conte, though they refuse to pay over the odds.
Figures of €50-60 million have been mentioned in the Italian press.
However, Sky Italia says Chelsea intermediaries have made it clear to their Roma counterparts they won't go higher than €30 million for Nainggolan.
The player, meanwhile, has denied on Twitter claims this week of a face-to-face meeting with Conte.
