Alberto Gilardino has assured fans he wants to stay with Fiorentina.
The Viola striker has been linked with Olympique Marseille.
"I never said I want to leave Florence," Gilardino told the club's official website. "Actually, I confirmed some days ago what my intentions really are.
"Frankly I don't understand how certain statements can be released on my account and with my presumed desire, statements that are without any kind of foundation."
