One of the top performers at the FIFA World Cup has responded to reports linking him with a move to Premier League giants Chelsea.

Croatia defender Josko Gvardiol has played a key role in helping the 2018 World Cup finalists reach the round of 16 this year.

Report: Joao Felix Makes Decision On Atletico Future

The RB Leipzig central defender was linked with a move to Stamford Bridge before the start of the season, but he reveals he is leaving everything to his agent while he focuses on the pitch.

"About me and Chelsea? I don't know. You know what happened in the last few months," Gvardiola told the Athletic.

"To be honest, I have no idea. My agent is taking care of this and we will see. Right now, I'm happy in Leipzig. I don't know, we will see – you never know. 

"You know the stories and these things, but all I can say is that I'm happy in Leipzig and right now I'm going to stay there and perform for them."

"It's a big club of course and, who knows, maybe one day I will be there. It's really nice to see things like this, especially because there is Kovacic, so you never know. 

"I talk with him. Even to be here on this, the biggest event, it's a big thing for me at 20 years old so I'm happy. I have to think about it."
