Sahin: Doesn't want to leave

Nuri Sahin has refuted rumours he could be going to Tottenham as part of Real Madrid's exchange bid for Luka Modric.

The Turkey international made his name at Borussia Dortmund, where he became the youngest player ever to start a game as well as score a goal in the Bundesliga, a record he still holds.

And since his £10million move from Dortmund to Los Merengues in May 2011, the midfielder has been a peripheral figure in Jose Mourinho's side, making only four appearances.

Despite a lack of game time, Sahin insists he wants to stay at the Bernabeu.

"Since I arrived here, it has been like living a dream," he is quoted as saying by Fichajes.

"It is one of the best clubs in the world and for this reason I do not see why I should go. I have no intention of leaving."

Should Sahin stay in Madrid, Spurs could enter the market for another long-term target Lassana Diarra, although they are likely to encounter competition from AC Milan and Spartak Moscow for the defensive midfielder's services.
