AC Milan defender Thiago Silva insists he is not tempted by the prospect of playing in the Premier League or La Liga and has pledged his immediate future to the Rossoneri.
• Milan determined to keep Thiago Silva
• Allegri: Ibra and Silva will stay
• Milan rubbish Ibra-City link
Silva, 27, has been in the headlines this week after Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini visited Milan, fuelling speculation that he was enquiring about the centre-back's availability.
However, Mancini and Rossoneri officials, including vice president Adriano Galliani and manager Massimiliano Allegri, have since stressed that there was no talk of a transfer, and the player himself - also previously tipped to move to Barcelona - has now publicly committed his future to the club.
"I have been told that for Milan I am a fundamental part of the team and non-transferable," Silva told Gazzetta dello Sport.
"Am I tempted to play in the Premier League or La Liga? Absolutely not. I am happy at Milan and I want to stay.
"I spoke with Adriano Galliani before I left for Hamburg [where Brazil played a friendly against Denmark], and he told me: 'You can stay calm because you are not leaving this club'."
Zlatan Ibrahimovic was also linked with a move to City as a result of Mancini's courtesy visit, but Silva says his team-mate is also staying at the San Siro.
"Ibrahimovic and I think the same way: we came to this club to win and we are staying for that same reason," Silva said.
