Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde has insisted that he is happy to stay amid interest from Chelsea and Liverpool.
The Uruguay international has been a key player under manager Carlo Ancelotti, and he had a brilliant 2022/23 season.
Valverde scored 12 goals and provided seven assists for Los Blancos, and he is now looking forward to another year with them.
He told ESPN Argentina: “No, no – I’m at Madrid, trying to enjoy every moment and leave my mark on the best club in the world. I want to keep winning titles for Real Madrid fans.”
Madrid recently handed one-year extensions to Toni Kroos and Luka Modric while they have also signed Jude Bellingham.
With Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga also in the squad, Valverde faces fierce competition for a midfield role.
Despite this, it seems the Uruguayan is satisfied with his position, and he is not contemplating a move to the Premier League.
Chelsea and Liverpool are keeping tabs on his situation, but they may have to wait longer to prise him away from Los Blancos.
