Reported Premier League target Miralem Pjanic has admitted he could one day leave Roma but says there is no chance of it happening in January.

Bosnia-Herzegovina international Pjanic has begun the new season in sparkling form for Roma but speculation has suggested that he is attracting interest from elsewhere.

Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are all rumoured to be monitoring his progress closely and considering winter bids.

The midfielder is aware of the transfer talk but has dismissed any possibility that he will be leaving Roma when the window reopens in the New Year.

The 23-year-old has no intention of moving on until his contract expires in 18 months' time and reports in Italy claim Roma are preparing a new deal to keep him until 2017.

"I won't exclude the possibility of one day playing elsewhere, but I doubt this will happen soon," said Pjanic.

"It certainly won't be in January, which is what some people have said, and certainly not in the next year and a half either."
