Real Madrid midfielder Rafael van der Vaart insists he's not pressing for a move away in January.

Van der Vaart has been linked with Chelsea and Everton ahead of the winter market.

"I wasn't fit [early in the campaign] and there was a lot going on in my head. I didn't do well in training," he told the club's official website.

"Now I am very happy and I want to prove I can be important for the team and the coach has allowed me to play several minutes in the last few games.

"I have to take advantage of every chance I get to prove I can play here. I know it's hard, but I want to fight for Real Madrid and become important on the team."
