Atletico Madrid's Argentine striker Kun Aguero on Sunday repeated his intention to keep on playing his football at the Vicente Calderon stadium.
The 22-year-old is now in his fourth season at the club he joined as an 18-year-old and that time has seen him develop into one of the most talented and improved players in the World.
He is reported to be on the shopping list of several major clubs and with Atletico not guaranteed a place in next season's Champions League, many players would be tempted to move on, speaking in sports paper AS on Sunday, Aguero insisted he intended to stay.
"I feel physically good and I am happy here. Atletico Madrid is my home and I also have a Spanish passport. I look after myself to be able to respond at the level I want to play at. I try and give 100 percent on the pitch for my team, because we are obliged to do so. It is part of the job," said Aguero.
Atletico kick off 2011 sixth in the BBVA Primera Liga table after a start to the season that has had its ups and downs. They have mixed good performances along with disappointing defeats, such as the 2-0 loss to Levante and have also crashed out of the Europa League - a tournament they won last season.
"Every team has something they can improve and so do we, but that is normal. We are in form and we know what we have to do. Bit by bit we are resolving problems and so we have to be positive and have confidence in our work and the work of the coaches," said Aguero.
"Our aim is to qualify for the Champions League for next season and to do that we have to finish in the top four. I think we are on track and we are working to achieve that aim. We are close to what we want to do and we hope to finish the season among the top four," confirmed Aguero.
