Fiorentina sports director Pantaleo Corvino denies he's chasing a job at Roma.

Corvino is in demand with both Juventus and Roma interested as his contract with the Viola approaches its end.

But he said: “I have always said that Florence represents my first hope.

“Then, just for a game, I was asked where I would like to work as an alternative. Therefore I replied that I would like a city on the sea, or even a wonderful city like Rome with two important clubs like Roma and Lazio.

“But I repeat, it was only a game.”
