Blanc cools Candreva speculation

The Italy international is now owned solely by the Rome-based club after they ended their co-ownership agreement with Udinese.

While Lazio president Claudio Lotito dismissed the prospect of selling him to PSG recently, Candreva reportedly remains a target for the wealthy French champions. 

However, Blanc insists Candreva is not among their close-season transfer targets. 

"Honestly there isn't anything to it," he told RMC.

"David Luiz was the priority. We're going to wait and see (about other transfers)."

Blanc has also been credited with a long-term interest in signing Luiz's former Chelsea team-mate Eden Hazard. 

However, the Belgian recently affirmed his commitment to Chelsea and Blanc acknowledged the player looks set to remain at Stamford Bridge.

"Eden Hazard? He is a top player," he added. 

"But what is certain is that Chelsea want to keep him."
