Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema has revealed that he has been on Manchester United’s transfer wish list for four years.
However, the Frenchman has insisted he is settled in Madrid.
Benzema told The Sun: “The rumours about my future are common, every summer it’s the same that I will be going to this club and that club.
“But I am very happy at Real Madrid and the thought about leaving has never crossed my mind. I know Manchester United have tried to sign me for the past three or four seasons. When I was at Lyon they and a number of other English clubs wanted me but could not agree terms with Lyon.
“Besides, I wanted to go to Spain and I can honestly say I have never regretted that decision.
“I’m still young and I have a contract at Madrid until 2015. I still want to achieve things at the club. I have had a taste of success after winning the Spanish title but I want more.”
