QPR midfielder Joey Barton has made it clear he wants to stay with Marseille.

QPR are insisting on a fee if Marseille want to make Barton's loan permanent.

"For the first time in my life I'm very happy, really content," Barton told ligue1.com.

"The fans have accepted me into their hearts and that means a lot to me.

"I get the impression my work here isn't finished yet. The French and the fans haven't seen the true Barton, I expect more from myself.

"I want to do a lot more for the club. When I saw the Parisians celebrating their title, I was jealous. I would like that to happen in Marseille at the Old Port. We can do it next year."
