Manchester United target Nicolas Gaitan not desperate for move

United target Gaitan calm about speculation

Benfica winger Nicolas Gaitan is calm about the speculation linking him with a move to Manchester United.

There have been reports in the media claiming that United have agreed to sign the 23-year-old, with a deal planned for the summer.

However, the Argentinian remains untroubled by the rumours surrounding his future and insists that he is happy in Portugal.

"The interest of big clubs is not affecting my head. I am calm about the rumours about Manchester United," Gaitan told O Jogo.

"I am not desperate to be sold. I am very comfortable in Benfica because we are an excellent team and the people are happy with me.

"If, eventually, no concrete offers appear, it's not a problem."

Gaitan joined Benfica from Boca Juniors in 2010.
