Darmian ‘happy’ at United

Matteo Darmian insists he is “happy” at Manchester United and that “there’s nothing” in reports he could leave the English giants.

Darmian has been continually linked with a return to Italy after struggling to establish himself for United, but the former Torino full-back is expecting to spend a third season at Old Trafford.

“Every time I read something about my future… but [there is] nothing news [wise],” he told the Sun.

Darmian has been continually linked with a return to Italy after struggling to establish himself for United, but the former Torino full-back is expecting to spend a third season at Old Trafford.

“Every time I read something about my future… but [there is] nothing news [wise],” he told the Sun.

“I am happy here. I think also it is a part of our work, these kinds of rumours. Like I said before, I am happy here so nothing news [wise].

“I am a Manchester United player – that’s it.”

Darmian also claimed he did not have a preference over playing on the left of right of defence.

“I always say the position doesn't matter to me if I have to play left or right,” added the 27-year-old.

“I work hard to be ready when the manager gives me an opportunity and that's it.

“I try to do my best every time, every game. I try to work hard during the week and that's my philosophy.”
