Napoli have warned Chelsea off making a move for striker Ezequiel Lavezzi.

Reports on Monday suggested Chelsea were lining up a move for the 23-year-old as they look to bolster their attacking options.

Lavezzi has established himself as one of the best prospects in Europe after impressing at the San Paolo since arriving from San Lorenzo last summer.

Napoli are keen to keep the Argentine and sporting director Pierpaolo Marino insists the forward is not for sale.

"We have not received any offers for Lavezzi," Marino told Corriere Dello Sport.

"If they(Chelsea) are thinking of making an offer, they might as well forget about doing so because we will reject it straight away. Lavezzi is not for sale at any price."

Lavezzi is under contract at Napoli contract until 2013 and the Serie A side are determined to keep hold of their best players.
