Daniele De Rossi

Daniele De Rossi is linked with a move away from Roma every summer, but director Bruno Conti has insisted the midfielder will once again stay with the club and not even free-spending Real Madrid can change their mind.

"I deny any entry into the market. De Rossi will be with us on [July] 20 for the retreat at Trigoria," he stated to Sky Sport 24.

"De Rossi is a player who is worth much more than €40 million."

Meanwhile, the 1982 World Cup winner took a moment to comment on the lavish spending by Real Madrid, including their player presentations.

"They are a club who recently had some problems, but Florentino Perez is trying build a great team," he explained.

"Of course there can be some exaggerations, but they have the money. I am focused only on Roma and earning redemption after last season."

The Giallorossi finished in sixth place in Serie A last season, missing out on Champions League football for the 2009-10 campaign.
