Sevilla coach Jorge Sampaoli insists he's happy where he is.

Sampaoli continues to be linked with Barcelona.

He said: "I don't have to renew because I have a contract.

"It's also not true that Barça have shown an interest in me, that I'm in the running or that they have contacted me."

The Sevilla boss also spoke about Monchi's future, with the sporting director wanted by Real Madrid and a number of other clubs.

He added: "I would like Monchi to stay, but it's not a condition for me to stay.

"According to the project Sevilla have, you are either there to help or you're not. I feel useful, loved and respected."
