Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero says they've rejected an offer from Roma for Lucas Torreira.

The 21 year-old Uruguay international is attracting big club interest.

“Marco Giampaolo can relax, because I guaranteed him that Torreira is not for sale," Ferrero told Il Secolo XIX newspaper.

“We already turned down an offer from Roma for Torreira and we'll reject others if they arrive.

“Let people therefore stop saying that Samp sell everyone, because we're building a strong squad."
