Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni has insisted that he is "very happy" at the Stade Louis-II amid links with a big-money move across Europe.
The France international is thought to be on the radars of Real Madrid, Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City after becoming an integral part of the Monegasques' setup.
Tchouameni's contract with Monaco still has over two years to run, though, and the 22-year-old has affirmed that he is enjoying life with the Ligue 1 giants.
"When I start something, I try to be the best I can be. I aspire to be one of the best players in Europe in my position. So I work every day to achieve this goal. This involves working at home or at the club, apart from the team's training sessions," Tchouameni told asmonaco.com.
"We are lucky here at AS Monaco to have very good infrastructure with the performance center, which allows us all to optimize our training. For example, I'm just coming out of a core training session with the club's physical trainer.
"These are things I try to do regularly, especially for injury prevention. Today I am getting through matches without having any physical issues, so that means that I am working well on the side, with the physiotherapists, and the staff, in particular to avoid muscular problems. At home I also have a gym, and I sometimes put in a few more sessions, like last night, always under the direction of the team's staff.
"Monaco are a very big French club with a wonderful history! Very great players have played here. When I was at Bordeaux and heard of the club's interest in me, I did not hesitate for a second to come here. I knew it could help me progress, with top facilities, and being a top project for young players. So today I am very happy to be part of this great club."
Tchouameni has registered three goals and two assists in 44 appearances for Monaco across all competitions this season - starting 27 matches in the 2021-22 Ligue 1 campaign. body check tags ::
