Manchester United left-back Alex Telles has admitted that he is not thinking about his future beyond the end of his loan spell at Spanish side Sevilla.
The Brazilian, who joined United from FC Porto back in October 2020, completed his move to Sevilla on a season-long loan deal last week, in a bid to get his career back on track. United have strengthened their left-back options this summer with the addition of Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord, leaving Telles third in the pecking order.
The 29-year-old, who will have wages covered by Sevilla in full during his loan spell in Spain, struggled to make the left-back spot his own during his first two seasons at Old Trafford, racking up just 50 appearances, scoring one goal. Unlike many modern day loans, Sevilla do not have the obligation to turn Telles' temporary switch into a permanent deal next summer.

Although situations can change, it is unlikely that Telles will return to M16 in just under a year's time and be in with a chance of rekindling his United career. And with that in mind, the Brazilian international has made it clear that he wants to focus on matters with Sevilla, opposed to thinking about what could happen at the end of this season.
"I'm very happy to be at this great club," Telles said, as quoted by Estadio Deportivo. "From the first moment I got the message to come here I didn't think twice.
"I'm ready and prepared for this important week in which La Liga begins. In life we go step by step.
"Now I'm here and I'm going to think about this important year for everyone. I don't think about the future. The future depends on now. I want to do things well and give my best.
"I'm proud of how my career is developing because I've come this far and through all the great clubs I've been through. There are no difficulties for me, I'm always positive thinking and willing to work hard to get where I want."
