Leeds United forward Rodrigo Moreno has said he has never considered a move away from the club despite the difficulties of the last 12 months. The Whites narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League last season, with Rodrigo struggling for form for much of the campaign.
Rodrigo was tenuously linked with a return to Spain back in January and Barcelona were among the names linked in their pursuit of a striker. But no move ever materialised for Rodrigo and he instead helped the club secure their Premier League status with some important goals towards the end of the season.
Speaking in an interview with AS, Rodrigo opened up on his happiness both on and off the pitch at Elland Road, insisting that a departure has never crossed his mind.

“The truth is, no. I’m happy at Leeds, in the Premier League, in the city. There is an interesting project, last year we had difficulties, but it was due to different circumstances… I want to continue growing here.
“Yes, I feel totally adjusted [in the Premier League]. In the day-to-day life, I am happy with the experience in the city of Leeds.
“Professionally, the Premier League is a super competitive league and more, every season. I arrived three years ago and every time I notice that it is making important differences with respect to the other leagues.
“It was always physical, but the level of quality has risen a lot. The pace of the game is very high. Everyone who arrives finds it difficult to adapt to that and I feel that I already am.”
