Ryan Shawcross insists that he is "very happy" at Stoke City despite reportedly attracting the attention of the Premier League elite clubs.

Ryan Shawcross has insisted that his future is at Stoke City amid interest from the Premier League's top clubs.

The Potters central defender has been linked with a return to Manchester United, from whom he joined Stoke back in 2007.

To ward off this interest, the Britannia Stadium outfit have reportedly offered Shawcross a new £45,000-per-week, six-year contract, and the 25-year-old has hinted that he is ready to make such a commitment.

He said: "I'm very happy here and very settled here. I have loved my five years here so far, and I want that to continue.

"We have progressed incredibly from when I first came here and I want to be part of the future. The people here have looked after me really well and the fans have been brilliant."

Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are also thought to be monitoring Shawcross, who earned his first England cap in the friendly defeat to Sweden earlier this month.
