Barca defender happy at the Camp Nou

Barcelona defender Gianluca Zambrotta admits he is flattered by interest from Milan but insists he will not be leaving Camp Nou. Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has previously stated that Zambrotta wants to move to Italy and that the 30-year-old was on the verge of agreeing a transfer to the San Siro. However, Zambrotta - who is under contract with Barca until 2010 - insists he is not about to swap Spain for the current European champions. "I am a Barcelona player and I will be a Barcelona player until the end of June 2010," said Zambrotta. "Right now I'm not thinking of the possibility of a future away from Barcelona. What happens after that remains to be seen. "I'm happy to hear their (Milan's) interest but they need to go and speak to Barcelona." Zambrotta joined Barca in 2006 and has made 46 appearances for the Catalan giants in which he has scored three goals.
