Eirik Bakke's agent Jim Solbakken refused to be drawn into conversation when asked if Italian giants Juventus were interested in the Norwegian international.
Reports in England speculated the Stadio Delle Alpi side were keen on landing the former Sogndal ace, however Solbakken neither strengthened nor played down the story.
"No comment," stated the agent to TV2 Nettavisen when confronted about whether Bakke could be set for a Serie A move.
Bakke's season has been hit by injury after he missed virtually the entire first half with a knee injury, while a thigh strain is currently keeping him on the sidelines.
The 26-year-old has been receiving treatment on the knock that has kept him out since Leeds' home clash against Liverpool, however he could return against Manchester City on Monday.
