Sampdoria chief Marotta cools Juventus talk

Sampdoria sports chief Beppe Marotta has cooled talk of moving to Juventus.

Samp president Riccardo Garrone declared last week he wouldn't stand in the way of Marotta if Juve came calling.

But Marotta says: "I am very well here and I am enjoying this extraordinary moment. We are chasing our dream, my dream, and that makes Samp equal to Juve."

Marotta was then pressed on whether Juventus have made inquiries about Pazzini.

"There has not been any contact. And anyway, Pazzini is fine with us, above all if we qualify for the Champions League.

"Last season there was contact [from Juve] for Cassano. Then nothing happened. And now the Pazzini-Cassano partnership will not be touched."
