Parma chief Pietro Leonardi is coy over their interest in Chelsea striker Fabio Borini.
Leonardi admits he admires the youngster, but has cast doubt on a January deal.
Asked about Borini yesterday, Leonardi replied: "Look, he's a very good young player, with a lot of potential. But Chelsea ..."
Borini's agent blasted Chelsea over their treatment of the youngster yesterday and also confirmed he would be out of action until February due to a shoulder injury.
