Valencia captain Dani Parejo has insisted that he wants to stay with Los Che this summer despite reported interest from Spanish champions Barcelona.
The 29-year-old, who has been with Valencia since 2011, is believed to be under consideration by Barcelona as the Catalan side look to replace Andres Iniesta and Paulinho.
However, the one-time Spain international has said that he wants to "continue" at Valencia as the club prepares to return to the Champions League for the 2018-19 campaign.
"This is my eighth season at the club and I want to continue here," Parejo told Marca. "All players would be honoured to play for a club like Valencia and I am happy here, I want to stay."
Parejo scored eight times and registered 10 assists in 42 appearances for Valencia last season.
