Zenit´s Alves plays down Juve link

20 July 2012 04:53

Bruno Alves says he knows nothing of Juventus' alleged interest in his services and insists he wants to remain at Zenit St Petersburg.

The defender played a starring role in Portugal's run to the semi-finals of Euro 2012 and his stellar form is said to have attracted the interest of Serie A champions Juve.

Fiorentina and Queens Park Rangers are also rumoured to be tracking the player, but he says the thought of leaving the Russian Premier League champions has not crossed his mind.

"I do not know anything about these offers," the centre-back told Sovetsky Sport.

"My agent has not told me anything.

"I can say, though, that I still have two years on my contract with Zenit and I want to stay to win more."

The 30-year-old, who has been capped 55 times by Portugal, joined Zenit from Porto in 2010.
