Fiorentina have reiterated that top scorer Luca Toni is not for sale.

Fiorentina have reiterated that top scorer Luca Toni is not for sale, after the prolific striker was linked to Internazionale.

Toni has rattled in 28 goals in Serie A this season and his exploits have seen him linked to a string of high-profile clubs.

Inter were the latest team to be credited with an interest in the Italy international, who is under contract at Fiorentina until 2009.

But Viola president Andrea Della Valle has dismissed the latest bout of speculation and has reaffirmed his intention to hang on to the hot shot.

"At 100 percent, Luca Toni remains," stated Della Valle.

"He's not for sale."

With Fiorentina aiming to join Inter in next season's UEFA Champions League, Della Valle confirmed the priority is finishing in the top four.

He added: "The only thing in which we are interested in now is earning a Champions League place."
