Antonio Di Natale is unlikely to leave Udinese in the January transfer period despite rumors linking him with a Premier League move.

The Udinese captain has been linked with a move to England and it is believed the recent poor form of his side may have accelerated his desire to move earlier.

However his agent Bruno Carpeggiani has revealed he will most probably remain with Udinese for the remainder of the season.

"The Bianconeri are struggling at the moment on and off the field," Di Natale's agent Bruno Carpeggiani admitted to Italian football website Novantesimo.it.

"Because of the tough time Udinese are having, many people think my client will be leaving for England.

"I saw him in the dressing room after the Milan game, but I knew it wasn't the right time to discuss the transfer situation.

"However, I know that Di Natale wants to help the side get back on track and doesn't have the slightest desire to jump ship at this point.

"Totò will be staying at the club at least until June and then we will see what happens."
