Midfielder Didier Zokora claims he is happy at Tottenham Hotspur but has been flattered by reports of interest from Real Madrid.
The Ivory Coast international is rumoured to be wanted by former Spurs and now Real coach Juande Ramos at the Spanish champions.
The 28-year-old joined the north London club in 2006 and claims he is content at White Hart Lane.
However, he is finding reports of interest from the Spanish giants hard to ignore.
"It's fantastic to be associated with Real Madrid as they are one of the biggest club sides in the world," he said.
"Show me the player who would not want to be linked with them.
"But I'm very happy here at Spurs and in England. I love England and the English people.
"My team is doing much better under Harry Redknapp and I am enjoying every minute of it. For me, this is a win-win situation. I cannot lose.
"I love playing for Spurs, but to be associated with Real Madrid is, of course, very flattering."
