Ritchie De Laet has ruled out the possibility of leaving Manchester United on a loan basis before the end of the season.
The Belgian international partook in a loan spell with Norwich City earlier in the campaign.
However, instead of leaving Old Trafford again on a temporary basis again, De Laet has vowed to try to force his way into Sir Alex Ferguson's plans.
"There are only 10 more games to go in the Premier League and probably a few more than that in the Championship, so a loan move now might not be the best thing for me," he told Sky Sports News.
"I've got a family, with a little girl, to look after, so I don't really want to be moving around England again for the sake of nine or 10 games.
"It is just one of those things where I'll have to sit tight and try to impress during training and reserve games to earn a first-team chance."
De Laet, 23, joined United in 2009 from Stoke City.
