Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi insists that he is not planning to leave San Siro, despite talk of interest from the Premier League.

Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi has insisted that he will not be leaving his Italian club at the end of the season.

The Argentine international, who has scored 14 Serie A goals this term, has been strongly linked with a move to the Premier League.

Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal are all said to be interested in the 23-year-old, but Icardi has ruled out a move as he targets a successful career at San Siro.

"It's the same story every year. Every year I read that I am leaving Inter," he told Corriere della Sera. "But I am happy here. I enjoy being Inter captain, being the club's striker and to score goals here.

"Of course, I want to win trophies, but I want to do it here at Inter, like so many did before me. Next year we will be gunning for the Serie A title and to qualify for the Champions League."

Icardi joined Inter from Sampdoria in the summer of 2013.
