The 19-year-old Dinamo Zagreb midfielder is the subject of a £12.5m offer from Liverpool, as Jurgen Klopp has wanted the player since his time at Borussia Dortmund.
It was rumoured that Napoli were the primary contenders for the Croatia international.
“There is no truth in that,” Coric told Vecernji. “Napoli are a great club, but they are of no interest to me. I haven’t heard anyone from there and can say there is nothing concrete in this.
“For now I am under contract with Dinamo, then we’ll see what happens.”
His agent, Andy Bara, also told CalcioNapoli24 that the stories were untrue.
“I am reading a lot in the papers about interest from Napoli. I can tell you with absolute certainty that there’s no truth in that.
“So far, I have never been contacted by the club. What we are reading is not true.”
