Chelsea target Andrea Pirlo will honour his contract with AC Milan, according to his agent.

The Italian midfielder has been strongly linked with a move to Stamford Bridge this summer, and AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi claimed recently he will consider offers for Pirlo.

But Pirlo's agent Tullio Tinti told Gazzetta dello Sport: "We are not worried by Berlusconi's comment. Pirlo is a Milan player. He is under contract and he honours contracts."

The 30-year-old is under contract with AC Milan until June 2012.

The World Cup winner made 26 league appearances as the Rossoneri finished third in Serie A last season.

  5. Sono Milanisti Stronzo. The premiershit is nothing­ without your arab / russian / american money. all the­ clubs are running on non productive debt. If your­ russian tsar leaves tomorrow or get arrested for­ corruption in russia, you will end up like wimbledon.­
    No top player wants to come to the premiershit. even­ to this day the prefered destination is spain and­ italy. the only reason the 'good' players do­ come is simply because of the wages and not having­ offers from spain or italy. Pirlo is 10 times better­ than any of chelsea's creative midfielders.
    Poor­ carlo will probably be sacked mid-season, because of­ your narrow-mindedness and fickle media.
