David de Gea has insisted he is happy at Manchester United despite reportedly turning down a contract offer from the club.
The Spaniard is entering the final few months of his current deal, and reports earlier this week suggested he had rejected the club's opening approach for fresh terms.
One of the club's best paid players, De Gea is on a reported £375,000 per week and United are keen to reduce that as they seek to bring squad wages more in line after years of chronic overspending.
Despite the reports, De Gea maintained he is happy in the north-west, outlining his love for the club he first joined as a wide-eyed youngster under Sir Alex Ferguson.
'I’ve been here many many years, enjoying every moment in this club playing many games,' De Gea told Sky Sports. 'Of course it's great to be here, it's a massive club and I love the club and I’m really happy here of course.
