Swansea City boss Gary Monk has dismissed reports linking Michu with a move away from the club this Summer.
The Spaniard has been a Premier League sensation since his arrival from La Liga, and during his first season, he managed to net 18 goals for the Welsh side.
However, this season has been different for the forward as injuries has kept him out for the majority of the season, leaving him with just two goals for Monk’s men.
Due to the serious injuries, there were reports suggesting the club had put the 28-year-old up for sale, but Monk has moved quickly to rubbish those reports, despite interest shown from giants Arsenal and Liverpool.
“He has definitely not been put up for sale by anyone at this club, me, the chairman or anyone,” he said.
“Our only discussion about Michu is getting him back to fitness and making sure he’s on the pitch for Swansea and scoring goals.
“He’s a goalscorer, our top scorer two seasons ago, so that’s not something you dismiss very lightly. We want him here at the club.”
Monk is keen for Michu to get fit again so that he can start building a powerful strike force alongside Wilfried Bony, who netted over 20 goals in his maiden season in England.
