Atletico Madrid striker Mandzukic shuts down Arsenal, Man City talk

Atletico Madrid striker Mario Mandzukic has cooled talk of a summer move to England.

After finding himself benched in favour of new signing Fernando Torres, it was suggested the Croatian was ready to move on in the summer, with Arsenal and Manchester City willing to ferry him away.

However, Mandzukic says: "I'm already in a great team. I have never considered leaving Atletico because I am happy here.

"Media exaggerate things. They write that I'm not happy when everyone could see during the derby how happy I am at Atletico.

"Fernando (Torres) and I get along well."
