West Ham winger Feghouli 'not interested' in quitting the club

West Ham United's Sofiane Feghouli has vowed to stay in east London despite a difficult debut season in England.

Many at the club labelled the signing of Feghouli a coup when the Algerian signed last summer.

The 27-year old had established himself as a mainstay with Valencia in the six seasons he spent at the Mestalla.

However, Feghouli struggled to make an impact with the Hammers and made only 11 league starts last season.

"I have two years left at West Ham and as I said on social media, I see myself staying at West Ham," he told RMC Sport.

"I'll start again on the 10th of July with the team. I mean it when I say it, but you don't control everything in football. I'm not looking for a way out, not at all.

"I'm going to go on holiday calmly and prepare myself for a great season.

"I'm open for talks with the manager, but there aren't any planned. Maybe the owner will tell me one day that I need to leave, but I don't think so."
