Liverpool striker Fernando Torres insists he will remain committed to his Reds contract.

Torres has been linked with a summer move to Manchester City, which had a £70 million offer for him turned down by manager Rafa Benitez earlier this year.

Speaking with the Telegraph, Torres admits he loves life on Merseyside.

"Scouse people are very respectful," he says. "If they see me walking my dogs in the park, they say, 'A'right Nando, lad.' And that is all. I like that."

Does this suggest he is here to stay?

"Who knows," he smiles. "But for the next four years, yeah. Deffo."
