OscarJuventus target Oscar has quashed all possibilities of moving to Turin, claiming he is happy to remain with Chelsea.

The Bianconeri had long been linked with the Brazilian playmaker, after Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri expressed his wishes for a No.10.

In an interview to English media however, Oscar has come out and closed the door on any eventual Turin switch.

“I have heard a lot about my [reported] transfer to Juventus but I am happy at Chelsea,” Oscar said in the Daily Mail.

“I have signed a new contract, which is a sign of my wishes to remain here for a long time.

“The rumors do not bother me as my future is here; I never thought about leaving [for Juventus].”

The 23-year-old attacking midfielder arrived at Chelsea back in 2012, making 94 appearances and scoring 18 goals for the Blues since. Oscar made 28 league appearances last season for Chelsea, scoring six goals and providing eight assists.
