"Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani is a friend, but we have never spoken about Mexes.
"He is a player who I care a lot about. We are talking to arrive at a renewal.
"I have not said that we have renewed [his contract], but we are continuing to talk.
"I am tired of reading false stories about Roma."
Sensi also denied claims Roma intend to sell David Pizarro to Genoa.
"He is a Roma player and he remains as such."
