Parma are adamant that there is no chance that boss Roberto Donadoni will leave the club this summer.

The former Italy tactician is one of numerous names being linked with the Lazio vacancy following Edy Reja’s decision to quit.

“I’ve read a lot of shocking rumours in the newspapers,” Gialloblu sporting director Pietro Leonardi told Radio Mana Mana. “Our Coach will remain at Parma.

“We are not prepared to give Donadoni to Lazio, that option has never been discussed and he is happy to stay here.

“There is no Donadoni-Lazio deal.”

The former Milan winger replaced Franco Colomba at the Tardini on January 9 when he signed a contract until June 2013.

Parma ended the season in joint-seventh after winning their last seven League games.
