AC Milan midfielder Antonio Nocerino will not be leaving the club, according to the player's agent.

Reports had suggested that the 27-year-old could leave the San Siro in the January transfer window.

Nocerino's agent, Marco Sommella, insisted that his client is not looking for a move away, claiming that he is "back to his best" for the Italian giants.

"I do not think that Nocerino will leave Milan. He has an ongoing contract and has just returned to the starting XI," Sommella told Radio CRC.

"He paid the price for all the changes at Milan this summer, but he's picked himself up and is back to his usual best again."

However, Sommella did reveal that Nocerino would be interested in joining Napoli one day.

"He is a Napoli fan. He would be the happiest man in the world if he would one day play for Napoli."

Nocerino joined Milan in 2011 from Palermo and has a contract until 2016.
