​Man Utd veteran Mata deflects future questions

Manchester United veteran Juan Mata does not want to discuss his future.

With two months of the season still to go, the Spaniard wants to focus on helping United achieve their goals in the Premier League and Champions League.

The Red Devils are in the top four race, while they face Barcelona in the Champions League quarter finals.

"I don't think right now is a good moment to speak about it," Mata told the MEN.

"Because I prefer to put the team before myself and what we are going to face now is important enough to be focused only on that.

"There have been some rumours about myself and other teammates over the last week, so I'm not the one who is going to put more questions or raise more comments with what I say.

"So I prefer to put the team before me and focus on the important task that we have ahead, which is Barcelona. And that's it. I'm sure the fans prefer that because we all want to beat Barcelona, we want to have our heads focused on Barcelona.

"And, again, I don't want to raise any more noise that, to be fair, in the last weeks there has been quite a lot."
