Portugal coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has played down reports linking him with the vacant managerial post at Chelsea.

The Blues are on the lookout for a new boss following the sacking of Avram Grant a week ago, but Scolari says that no contact has been made with the Premier League club.

He told reporters: "I am working normally around the national team squad.

"It is normal at the end of a contract for a coach to be mentioned with other clubs.

"If I take a decision, I will tell my president, but I haven't made a decision yet. My only decision now is to work until after the European Championships.

"My president is Gilberto Madail, he is my representative. If he has had any contact with Chelsea, I haven't been told about it."
