"I am always very fine at this club. I still have two years of contract [left]. When I feel the desire to leave, I'll leave. But, for now, I'm a Blue," he told Canal+ .

"We know the admiration that I have for Real, but I'm at Chelsea. Every year, things were said about me but I stayed.

"In Lille, I was announced in Paris, but I stayed. And in Chelsea, people always said that I'm leaving, but I'm still here."
