De Gea staying put at Atletico

The highly-rated youngster has attracted widespread plaudits since establishing himself as Atletico's number one over the last year, and in recent weeks he has been closely linked with a move to Old Trafford. However, the Madrid-born 20-year-old is adamant his immediate future is at the Vicente Calderon. He was quoted as saying on his club's website: "The supporters can relax, I'm staying here. I'm very relaxed and there's no reason to move. "I'm very happy here, I've spent my whole life here and this is a great club that deserves everything. "Atletico Madrid have given me everything. It's a compliment that a club as great as Manchester United are interested in you, but Atletico are close to my heart and I want to stay here."
