David Silva and David Villa have reiterated their happiness at Valencia following their key roles in Spain's Euro 2008 triumph.

Villa finished the tournament as top scorer, while Silva impressed with his performances on the wing for Spain.

Both players have been linked with moves to the Premier League, but hit-man Villa says he is not looking to change clubs this summer.

"I've always felt the affection of the fans and it is something that fills me with pride," said Villa in AS.

"I am happy with my current contract and I am very happy in Valencia."

Relaxed

Silva is equally content at the Mestalla, saying: "I am happy in Valencia and with my current contract, and now I think of just going to relax and enjoy this great success.

"You will have to ask the club. I am very comfortable here, as is my family, and the team is very competitive."

Valencia president Agustin Morera has again stressed his commitment to keeping the duo, insisting he could have sold both Villa and Silva.

Morera said: "Our desire is to keep both Villa and Silva. If we had wanted to we could have sold them because we have offers on the table.

"Our interest is for them to stay - that is our dream and to make a great team."
