Edin Dzeko refuses to get drawn into all the speculations surrounding his future while leaving the door open for his exit from Roma.

AS Roma forward Edin Dzeko’s future at the club has looked increasingly uncertain in recent times with him heavily linked with a move to Juventus.

Juventus’ new boss Andrea Pirlo recently confirmed that he no longer has Gonzalo Higuain in his future plans, and the club are said to be in the market for a new striker.

Dzeko is understood to be at the top of the Serie A champions’ wish-list as they look to bring in a new strike partner for Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 24-year old Bosnian bagged 19 goals across and registered 14 assists across all competitions last season while helping Roma qualify for the Europa League.

Speaking in an interview with the Italian TV channel Rai Sport, Dzeko, however, was reluctant to discuss his future.

“Every year there’s talk about me leaving Roma,” he stated.

“It’s not the right time to talk about the transfer market, I focus on these games, and then we’ll see.”

“The possibility of playing with Cristiano Ronaldo at 34? I can say that I’m 34 years old, that I feel good, and that I’m proud of this.”
