Frank Lampard insists Chelsea are not interested in Angel Gomes, who is a free agent after leaving Manchester United.
Manchester United have confirmed London-born 19-year-old Gomes is leaving Old Trafford, with the highly-rated attacking midfielder's services now in high demand.
Chelsea have been linked with a swoop for the England Under-20s star, but Blues boss Lampard rejected any interest out of hand.
“It has never been mentioned at my end,” he said.
Chelsea will head to West Ham for Wednesday's Premier League clash looking for a sixth straight win in all competitions, and a fourth since the sport's resumption.
The Blues continue to be linked with a summer move for West Ham's England and ex-Chelsea academy star Declan Rice.
But Stamford Bridge manager Lampard has opted to keep tight-lipped on any Chelsea interest for the 21-year-old Rice too.
"Declan Rice (below) is a good player, you're right, and I've known Declan Rice for a long time, as he was in the Chelsea academy, but there's no talk," said Lampard.
"I keep saying, about every player we'll be asked about. Until these games and this season is finished, there's nothing to say."
Lampard also revealed Christian Pulisic is a fitness doubt to face West Ham after feeling a tightness in his calf in Sunday’s 1-0 FA Cup win against Leicester. Andreas Christensen is also a doubt for the game at the London Stadium.
