Alvaro Negredo has revealed that he is hoping to make Spain's World Cup squad for this summer's tournament in Brazil.
The Manchester City striker has scored nine goals in 18 Premier League starts since joining the club from Sevilla in the summer transfer window.
The 28-year-old told the Manchester Evening News: "It would be fantastic to be the centre-forward for Spain in the World Cup.
"But there is tremendous competition. You can only do your thing, play well, score goals and hope that the coach has an eye on you.
"I have adapted very well to England, both on and off the pitch. Yes, the weather is not like Sevilla, it rains a lot. This winter has been awful, but life is quiet and the people are very respectful."
Negredo has earned 21 caps for his country, scoring 10 goals in the process, since making his international debut in 2009.
