AC Milan midfielder Nigel de Jong has insisted that he is eager to extend his stay at the San Siro.

The 29-year-old is believed to be a target for a number of clubs, including Liverpool, but he claims that he will not be pursuing a move away from Milan in the summer.

De Jong has seen competition for a place in the team increase following Michael Essien's arrival at the club from Chelsea.

"I want to try and stay at Milan for another four or five years," De Jong told reporters.

De Jong joined Milan from Manchester City in August 2012.
