Udinese midfielder Rodrigo de Paul says he'll never ask to be sold.

De Paul was linked with Leeds United last summer.

“I will never ask Udinese to sell me or start slamming the door," he told SportItalia.

“I'm happy here, they raised me and I'm not going to leave them."

On the passing of Argentine legend Diego Maradona, De Paul added: “We all miss Diego, Argentina owes him so much for the social redemption he has allowed to the whole nation."
