The Brazilian attacking midfielder has been linked with the Serie A champions and the East London club since an impressive season in Italy's capital raised his stock after losing his way at Real Madrid.

But Herminio Menendez dismissed the speculation and said the Brazilian will be staying in Rome.

"At this moment in time, I can state that Julio Baptista will 100 per cent stay with Roma. There is a lot of talk about nothing," Menendez told Roma News.

"There are no negotiations surrounding Julio. As a result, we should all expect him to remain with the Giallorosso.

"I have no news about Julio. I haven't spoken to anyone and I don't understand why so much is being discussed about Julio leaving Roma.

"I've heard from nobody, not even Inter."

Baptista, 27, scored 11 goals in 36 appearances last season.
