Norwich striker Pukki plays down Benfica links

Norwich City striker Teemu Pukki is not interested in leaving the newly promoted club.

The Finland international has been linked with Benfica.

Speaking on the reports, Pukki said: "At least for the moment, I haven't given any weight to that type of stuff.

"Of course, if there were any offers, you should think about it. But I have a clear head.

"It's the thought that I am going back to Norwich. It was really good for me and my family. It's good to be in Norwich and that's why I see no reason to leave.

"I have a lot of expectations about (the Premier League). I still don't know how big the difference is compared to the Championship but I think I have a lot to give at that level too.

"It will probably be a different season to the last one, I can't see myself scoring 29 league goals but I am looking forward to it."
