Domenico Berardi is set to remain with Sassuolo amid reported interest from Inter, according to general manager Giovanni Carnevali.
The 21-year-old is understood to be on the Nerazzurri's radar after helping inspire Sassuolo to a sixth-place finish in Serie A and subsequent qualification for the Europa League in 2015/16.
It has also been suggested Juventus retain a buy-back clause after ending a co-ownership agreement for Berardi with Sassuolo.
But Carnevali insists the Serie A champions hold no influence over Berardi's future and has rejected claims Inter have made an offer for the forward's services.
"Together with Domenico we took an important decision 20 days ago," he is quoted as saying by La Gazzetta dello Sport. "He chose to play with us for another season. That's why his sale is not even being considered.
"I'd like to specify that our consolidated relationship with Juve means nothing in this situation, so much so that the Bianconeri have no option on the player.
"Berardi is our treasure. We gave up on €25 million to keep counting on his contribution this season. Our plans haven't changed and in any case Inter haven't presented any written offer yet."
