Felipe Anderson: 'I'm not leaving Lazio this summer'

Felipe Anderson: 'I'm staying at Lazio'

Felipe Anderson has claimed that he will not be leaving Lazio in the summer transfer window.

The attacking midfielder has been repeatedly linked with a move to Manchester United in recent months after playing a key role in helping Lazio reach the Champions League.

However, Anderson insists that he is committed to the Serie A club following reports that United were preparing a £30m bid.

"Next year? All I know is I'll be playing for Lazio," the 22-year-old told reporters.

"I only recently renewed my contract for another five years. I'm thinking about that shirt, and nothing else. I don't know of any offers, my future is at Lazio."

Anderson joined Lazio from Santos for a reported £6.5m in 2013.
