Inter Milan boss Claudio Ranieri has said that he expects midfielder Thiago Motta to stay at the club.
The Brazilian has been linked with French giants Paris Saint-Germain, even hinting that he would welcome a move.
However, Ranieri has made it clear that he wants the 29-year-old to remain with the Nerazzurri as he tries to guide the side up the Serie A table.
"I've asked the club, Thiago Motta will stay", Ranieri told Sky Italia after his side lost 1-0 to Lecce on Sunday.
"As for what I know, he will remain with us."
The midfielder's contract with Inter expires next summer and the Italian giants are yet to offer him a new deal.
