Damiao: 'I'm happy at Internacional'

Internacional striker Leandro Damiao has revealed that he is in no rush to leave the Brazilian club.

Damiao was strongly linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur during the January transfer window, and after a move failed to materialise, the Brazilian international has insisted that he is "calm" about his future.

The 23-year-old told Globo Esporte: "I'm calm. I'll certainly leave Internacional one day, but my focus at the moment is on the club.

"I hope to play in Europe one day, it's a dream, but I am also in no hurry to leave. I have no reason to do anything crazy and leave quickly.

"I have had many chances to leave, but I have stayed. I want [any transfer] to be good for Internacional too."

The forward was the top scorer at the Olympic football tournament last summer.
