Alexander Buttner wants Manchester United stay

Alexander Buttner denies that he wants to depart Manchester United in January.

Alexander Buttner has quelled suggestions that he wants to depart Manchester United in January.

The 24-year-old left-back joined the Premier League champions in the summer of 2012, but has struggled to secure regular first-team football.

A number of European clubs have been linked with his services, but the Dutchman has insisted that he wants to 'fight for his place'.

"If people talk about other players in my position, I don't care," Buttner told the club's official website.

"I just want to play my game and show that I can handle the level. I know there are some clubs that want me but I'm happy here and want to play for United so I focus 100% on here.

"I don't want to leave. I want to fight for my place. I am still young and I know what I can do. I just have to wait for my chances and take them."

United's first-choice left-back Patrice Evra has also been linked with a move from Old Trafford.
