Key Fulham defender Brede Hangeland has moved to end speculation linking him with a summer move away from Craven Cottage.

The 27-year-old Norway international is currently in talks with the Cottagers over a new contract and Hangeland insists that Fulham remain his one and only focus.

He told the club's official website: "I've never made any comments about the negotiations and I never will.

"So if you read something about me having said something, it's not true.

"I've said all along I'm happy at Fulham and I believe we can reach an agreement.

"They've said they're happy with what I've done and I'm happy with the club, there's no reason to think otherwise that I'll be leaving.

"We still have a lot to play for. At the beginning of the season we were hoping to avoid having to play for anything at this time of the year, because it might have been another relegation battle.

"But now we have a great chance of Europe. How many points do we need to get there, who knows?

"One of the reasons we've got this high is not looking very far forward."
