Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Montella has denied rumours linking Juan Cuadrado with a move away from the club.

Earlier today it was reported that Chelsea had opened talks for the Colombian international.

However, Montella has said that there is no truth in the reports and that he expects the winger to stay.

"As of today there is no possibility Cuadrado will leave Fiorentina," Montella told reporters.

"He knows that certain things get exaggerated. It's just idle chatter, he's pretty accustomed to it."

Cuadrado is in his third season at Fiorentina, having joined the club in 2012 from Udinese.
