Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci has denied claims that he contacted Manchester City seeking a transfer to the Premier League outfit.
City chief executive Ferran Soriano claimed last month that Bonucci had called the club ahead of this season stating a desire to play under Pep Guardiola.
But the Italy center back, who has won five Serie A titles with Juve, insists no such conversation took place.
"I never called anybody and they never called me personally," Bonucci told RAI.
"I feel I have the Juve shirt sewn to my body because I breathe it every day, but wearing the national team shirt is also an honor.
