Villarreal striker Giuseppe Rossi will not be making a January move away from the Spanish club, according to agent Federico Pastorello.
The Italian has been linked with several of Europe's biggest clubs, following Villarreal's relegation from La Liga at the end of last season.
"Giuseppe will remain at Villareal for another five months, I guess. In my opinion, this was the last chance for Italian clubs to get him. In January there will be too much competition with foreign clubs," Pastorello tweeted.
The 25-year-old former Manchester United striker remains on the sidelines as he recovers from a cruciate knee ligament injury that ruled him out for 10 months in April.
