Sergio Ramos has denied reports that he is unhappy at Real Madrid and insists he would retire with the Spanish giants if he could.
Recent rumours have suggested he has fallen out with Real president Florentino Perez, and that he was pondering his next career move after a disagreement regarding wages.
Premier League clubs including Chelsea and Manchester City have been monitoring the situation but Ramos has quickly assured fans he wants to remain at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The World Cup winner, who has a contract with the club until the summer of 2017, insists there has been a difference in opinion but he wants to commit his future to the club for as long as possible.
He told AS: “I’ll repeat, our differences were nothing to do with the contract. I’ve got three years here and I’m relaxed and I’m not looking to leave.
“I feel privileged and if I could, I would retire here. I’m not going to talk about the differences between us because it’s a personal matter, but I can say we have a great relationship. I’ll never forget who the president here is and I know he’s in charge.”
Ramos has been an ever-present member of Carlo Aneclott’s side so far this season, as the former Paris Saint-Germain boss eyes the La Liga title.
The 27-year-old has made 13 appearances at the heart of Madrid’s defence so far this season, and he helped them to a 4-0 win over Real Valladolid on Saturday, a game in which Gareth Bale scored a hat-trick.
