The Brazilian insists he is going nowhere after
recently signing a five-year deal to remain in
Rome
Felipe Anderson insists his future lies with Lazio
despite reports recently linking him with a possible
move to Bayern Munich.
The 22-year-old has earned rave reviews in
2014-15 following a string of outstanding
performances as the Biancocelesti secured a place
in August's Champions League play-off round.
And despite his stellar displays having drawn
admiring glances from some of Europe's top clubs,
the Brazilian says he will be staying at the Stadio
Olimpico.
"What I know about my future is that I will play
with Lazio, and I have recently renewed my
contract for another five years," Felipe Anderson
told LaLazioSiamoNoi.it .
"I am focused only on Lazio, I don't think of
anything else. I don't know of any other offer, my
future is at Lazio."
The Brazil Under-21 star has not been called up
by Dunga for the senior national side's Copa
America campaign this summer despite having
joined the squad recently ahead of their warm-up
fixtures for the tournament.
But the player has a looming target as far as his
international prospects are concerned.
"My goal is to be at the 2016 Olympics," he
added. "After the opportunity I had with the
national team I am even more motivated just to
train I think. The Olympics is a very important
competition and winning a medal would be great,
something I have dreamt about a lot.
"But now I want to enjoy this golden opportunity
and just focus on my training.
