Nigeria striker Emmanuel Emenike has revealed to MTNFootball.com on his return from injury he wishes to stay at Spartak.
Emenike has been sidelined for several weeks by a knee injury that needed surgery in Italy amid speculations over his future with former Turkish club Fenerbache reported to be keen on having him back.
"It's great to return to training but I can't wait to start playing matches and scoring goals. I must confess that I missed everything on the pitch,” he told MTNFootball.com
"It was as if it's now many years that I last played the game. We can't do without injury though it hurts when it takes long. I am looking forward to a bigger return. I am tired being off football. I am getting better than expected and I hope to make it back as quickly as possible."
The former Karabukspor striker revealed to MTNFootball.com that he is happy at Spartak and would wish to stay put despite various interests across Europe.
"For now, I'm staying put at Spartak Moscow," Emenike told MTNFootball.com
"The truth is that I am not thinking about transfer for now even though there are offers, but my club have the final say on the issue and they have told me they are not interested in selling me which means I am still very much important for the team.
"So, I am not leaving Spartak except my club say I am not needed."
The power-playing forward said he delighted with the show of support for him while he was on the treatment table.
"I must thank everybody who has supported my return. They mean a lot to me and they are not just fans but family irrespective of where they came from. I wish to pay them back with goals and good performances on the pitch," he said.
