Giampaolo Pazzini has dismissed speculation linking him with Chelsea Football Club.

Carlo Ancelotti has reportedly made the Italian a potential target for the summer transfer window, but the 25-year-old is taking the speculation with a large dose of salt.

“I live only for the day and think only of Sampdoria," he said. "With my team-mates, we read the papers and we joke about this or that possible destination. In short, there is nothing happening."

Pazzini has been in sparkling form in Serie A this season with 13 goals in twice as many appearances, form which looks set to earn him a place in the Azzurri squad for the World Cup Finals.
