Paris St Germain striker Edinson Cavani brushed aside media reports that he will leave the French giants this summer.
The Italian press has linked the former Palermo and Napoli player to Serie A leaders Juventus.
Cavani, 28, is also a reported target of Manchester United as manager Louis van Gaal looks to strengthen his squad this summer.
Following PSG's 3-1 home defeat to Barcelona on Wednesday in the Champions League quarter-finals first leg, Cavani quashed the speculation when he told Sky Italia: "There is too much talk about my future but I will remain here.
"I will respect my contract and I'm only focusing on doing well for PSG."
There is too much talk about my future but I will remain here.
Cavani joined PSG in a £50million deal in 2013 and is under contract with the Ligue 1 giants until June 2018.
He has scored eight goals in 28 domestic league appearances for PSG this season and has also struck six times in nine Champions League appearances for Laurent Blanc's side.
PSG are second in the Ligue 1 standings, two points adrift of league leaders Lyon but have a game in hand.
They have also reached the French Cup final but have a mountain to climb in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Barca at the Camp Nou next week.
