Roberto Mancini plans to see out his contract at Manchester City, dashing suggestions of a return to Italy.
Juventus continue to be linked with the Blues boss, with Mancini having revealed in the past that he would welcome the opportunity to work with his boyhood heroes at some stage in his career.
He has, however, made it clear that he will not be heading to Turin any time soon, with his full focus locked on events at Eastlands.
City have ambitions of dominating English and European football, and Mancini has every intention of leading them to the top of the pile.
He still has two years left to run on his current contract and insists there is no chance of him breaking that agreement to take on a new challenge elsewhere.
"I am now in England and I still have a two-year contract with City, where I have a good relationship with the owners," said Mancini.
"Sheikh Mansour is close to us and follows us.
"The Premier League is the best.
"In Italy, the stadiums are empty and this makes me very sad."
Making an impression in the 2011/12 UEFA Champions League is Mancini's priority at present, with City having qualified for Europe's premier club competition for the first time.
He added: "I do not want it to be a guest appearance after qualifying on merit.
"We want to be leaders in the competition."
