Roma manager Eusebio Di Francesco has played down speculation linking Edin Dzeko with a move to Chelsea.
As reported by Italian Football TV, the Giallorossi manager says that the striker is an integral part of their plans this season.
Speaking after Roma’s 1-1 draw away at Inter on Sunday night, Di Francesco said he wouldn’t have selected the forward if a move was imminent.

The former Manchester City striker started in what was a crunch game in the hunt for Champions League football but failed to impress against Inter.
Prior to the game, club legend and director Francesco Totti had been seen joking about a move to Chelsea with the striker.
The Blues are said to be interested in a £45 million double swoop for both Dzeko and defender Emerson Palmieri.
The 31-year-old striker has netted nine times in Serie A this season and found the back of the net 29 times during the last campaign.
