Manchester City defender Micah Richards has claimed that he is satisfied at Manchester City and does not plan to move away anytime soon, despite speculation that he is intending a £18million move to Premier League champions Manchester United during the summer transfer window.

Richards has recently put pen to paper for a new deal with the Citizens and insisted that changing clubs was not on his mind right now.

"I'm happy at Manchester City, particularly after what I feel has been a successful season for us," Richards said.

"Manchester United are a great club with a great manager in Sir Alex Ferguson, but I'm only concentrating on regaining full fitness.

"I hope that the Mr Eriksson's position is sorted soon one way or the other so that we can focus on football instead."
