However, he is happy to stay and fight for his place, saying he feels important under Mourinho and that he never considered leaving.
“Mourinho has given me this feeling that I would be a big part of the team,” he said. “He plans with me and he wants me in this team and he wants to play me.
“That’s why I want to stay at this club. Everything here is good for me. I have the pressure to perform, I have the pressure to do well in training.
“I have the great fans that all support me here and so there was no question for me that I would leave this club in the summer.”
