Benfica star Nelson Semedo has ruled out any possibility of a move next month.
The right-back was heavily sought after by Bayern Munich and Manchester United, but recent comments suggest a move for Semedo is off the cards now, with the 23-year-old confirming he is more interested in staying long-term with the Portuguese giants.
“They can be calm and you can rest easy,” Semedo told Sport TV. “I’m completely focused on Benfica and I hope to continue here for many years to come.

“I’m helping the club to achieve its objectives.”
The full-back, who has one senior cap for Portugal so far, is reported to have a £38 million exit clause in his Benfica contract.
Now Bayern Munich and United will have to search elsewhere for a new right-back, as the young talent’s commitment at the Estadio da Luz seems a hard reality.
