Moratti denied that Vieri was discussed, saying "I met the Chelsea owner but it was just out courtesy and to try and establish a rapport between my club and his.
"Sure, we talked about players. He asked about our best players, but Vieri is not for sale and the squad remains as it is."
Is he telling porkies? Who knows, but if the rumours are true, it would surely take a bid of at least £20 million. That's small change to our Roman though...
