Manchester United to miss out on Sami Khedira?

Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira has seemingly ruled himself out a move to Manchester United after admitting that he is "happy" to remain with Madrid.

The 24-year-old has been strongly linked with a move to England in recent weeks after failing to hold down a regular first-team slot in Spain, but the German international has insisted that he will stay at the club.

"I want to stay at Real Madrid for a long time. It is said that the second year at a big club is more difficult, but I am happy with how it is going," said Khedira.

Khedira joined Madrid from Stuttgart in 2010 after starring for his country in the 2010 World Cup.
