Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea target Anderson Talisca has put a halt on a move after reports suggested the striker was ready to move to England.
The Premier League outfits have been monitoring the Benfica player’s progress and were thought to be readying January bids after being impressed by his performances.
But the Brazilian has ruled out a move after revealing he is happy at the Portuguese giants.
“I am thinking only of Benfica. I’m ready, I know I have and am able to learn much from this wonderful group, with supporters and with the coach,” he said.
The forward was signed for a minimal £3m fee from Brazilian club Bahia and now has a release clause of £18m after his impressive exploits this term, which has seen him score nine goals in his last 10 games for the club.
