Manchester United midfielder Anderson has dismissed any talk that he may be leaving Old Trafford either in January or in the summer as reported by Sky Sports News.

The Brazilian international has become a bit part player under Sir Alex Ferguson due to persistent injuries, but despite that the midfielder feels United would not let him leave Manchester.

The 24-year-old however did concede that if a move away from the Red Devils materialised, he would only ever want to return to Portugal to play for his previous club Porto.

"In Portugal, I have only ever played for Porto and if one day I came back, I would play for them," Anderson told A Bola.

"But the return to Portuguese football is far from happening. United will not let me go and I will not put myself in that scenario."

Anderson is now fit and ready to return to the first team and fight for his place in a midfield that can be chosen from up to 12 players.
