Seydou Keita insists that he will thrash out a new deal with Barcelona as opposed to searching for a new club this summer.

Barcelona midfielder Seydou Keita has admitted that he has no intentions of leaving the Nou Camp following months of uncertainty.

The 32-year-old has previously hinted that he could leave the former La Liga champions this summer due to the expiration of his contract.

Despite reported interest from the Premier League, including that of Merseyside outfit Liverpool, Keita has insisted that he is happy to continue under new Barca manager Tito Vilanova.

"I'm waiting to talk to the club to clear up my future," Keita told Marca. "I want to stay at Barca, that's my wish. I'd like to retire at the club and I hope it will be possible.

"We need to sit down, see what Barca offers and wants and iron out all the details. My family is happy in Barcelona."

Keita has been with the Catalans since 2008.
