Juventus deny interest in signing Didier Drogba

Juventus have denied reports in the Italian media that they are interested in signing Didier Drogba.

A report in the Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper claimed that the former Chelsea striker has agreed an 18-month deal to join the Italian champions.

After today's match, Coach Antonio Conte told reporters: "Transfer talk seems disrespectful to the players in my team, especially at the current moment.

"It's a critical time as far as the economy is concerned and it's the same for several other teams.

"We won't be signing any top players because we're not in a position to. Neither us, nor other top teams in the Italian league."

The 34-year-old left Chelsea for Chinese side Shanghai Shenhua in the summer.
