Reports have claimed that the Brazilian player could leave Werder Bremen to join the Spanish giant in the summer, with Diego's father, who is also is agent, having allegedly claimed that his son would be eager to sign with the Merengues.

But the former Porto midfielder has denied the speculation, saying that he is more than happy with life in Bremen.

"The rumours about my father are not true - he would never force me to go to another club," Diego told German TV channel DSF.

"All he wants is for me to be satisfied and that is at Werder Bremen."

Diego also confirmed that his stay at Werder Bremen will not depend on qualification for the Champions League, despite his side currently being in fourth place in the Bundesliga.

"Even if we do not qualify for the Champions League, I want to stay at Werder Bremen," he added.
