Lazio director Igli Tare is coy over talks with departing Manchester City midfielder David Silva.

Silva is said to be in contact with Lazio about a move to Italy.

“I don't know where these stories come from," said Tare.

“He's a great player, of course, and I have heard from some mutual friends that he would like a different experience after 10 years in England, but there's a big difference between saying something and making it happen."
