AS Roma striker Paulo Dybala has cooled talk of a move to Chelsea.

The Blues have been linked with the Argentina international, with Thiago Silva talking up the prospect over the weekend.

But Dybala told LaRoma24: "I'm motivated for pre-season, which we're starting [on Monday]. My future? I'm happy at Roma.

"I'm staying here."

Roma coach Jose Mourinho stated last week: "I don't know anything about his contract. But obviously I talk to Paulo like I do with all of my players."
