The 25-year-old has been linked with a move to Inter Milan this summer.
He told Sportweek: “I continue thinking that this is the best club in the world, even though they want to transfer me. My intention is to continue until I am told to leave.
“If I am still here on September 1, then the club cannot transfer me and this increases my chances of playing with [Real ] Madrid. The coach sees me as part of the team.”
