Gennaro Gattuso has every intention of honouring his contract at Milan, according to the midfielder's agent.

There are expected to be wholesale changes to the Rossoneri squad following an unsuccessful season and Gattuso has been linked with a move away from the club.

Milan have dismissed suggestions that the arrival of Mathieu Flamini from Arsenal will lead to Gattuso's departure, and agent Claudio Pasqualin has now stepped in to back up that view.

Carlo Ancelotti's side are currently battling it out for fourth place in Serie A and Pasqualin insists Gattuso is staying focused on the matter at hand.

"Will Ringhio leave Milan? All he is thinking about at the moment is making sure that his team reaches the Champions League," Pasqualin told the Italian press.

"He has a very long contract with the Rossoneri and I can confirm that he has every intention to respect it."

Gattuso is under contract at Milan until 2011 but Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Tottenham are all reportedly keen on signing him.

The 30-year-old stated only last week that it was a dream of his to play in the Premier League.
