Winston Bogarde has denied reports he is about to join Anderlecht. He is currently in Italy with the rest of the Chelsea first team at a pre-season training camp.

Bogarde is delighted to be with the first team and denies he has been negotiating with any other clubs.

He told Icons.com: ''A Sunday newspaper suggested that I could be leaving for Anderlecht in the near future, but I don't know anything about this.

''I haven't spoken to anyone about that move and as far as I know, nor has my agent. In fact I'm not in talks with any other clubs at the moment. Maybe there is something in the story, maybe there isn't.

''I'll be back in England next week and hopefully I'll have a clearer picture of what my future holds at that time.''

Bogarde added: ''I'm delighted to say that so far I have been training exclusively with the Chelsea first team and as a result of that, I'm in Italy at the club's pre-season training camp.

''That is a positive start for me and I have to take heart from it. I don't know if I'll be going on the tour of the Far East - I hope so, but I won't look any further than the Italian trip for the time being.''
