Nani has declared he wants to stay with Valencia.

His spell has been so frustrating that the 30-year-old has been linked with a summer departure but Nani has quelled any fears by claiming that he wants to stay and prove himself at the Estadio Mestalla.

"I hope to remain a Valencia player next season," Nani told reporters after Los Che's 2-0 loss away to Malaga. "I have a contract here, I like Valencia and I want to achieve great things at this club.

"Every day, I have been feeling better and I'm working very hard at giving 100 percent any time I am out on the pitch."

On the Malaga defeat, he added: "We had an opponent in front of us who played well and we didn't hit the level we have recently.

"Once they scored, the game became very difficult for us."
