Valencia striker Paco Alcazar made his first start for his country on Monday night and on Tuesday assured the press that he had no intention of following other important players at the club and flying the nest.

Alacazar made his debut and scored his first international goal and Spain's second goal of their 5-1 thrashing of Macedonia on Monday night after just 17 minutes and looked a constant threat for the Macedonia goal with his pace and mobility.

His form will no doubt capture the eye of big clubs around Europe, no doubt aware of the number of players who have left Valencia in recent years.

Players such as David Silva, David Villa, Adil Rami and Jordi Alba have all left Valencia in recent seasons, while this summer saw Jeremy Mathieu and Juan Bernat also abandon the club for big money offers.

However, local boy Alcazar says he has no intention of following that trend.

"I know exactly what I want to do. I want to be here for a long time and to enjoy my football with Valencia, because the affection I feel here is special," commented the player who grew up through the Valencia youth system.

Alcazar also commented that he has started speaking to the club about a possible contract extension. "The club have taken and interest and I am delighted that's the case. If we can get to something that makes us both happy, that will be good for all of us," he said, before commenting on his international goal

"It was very special, to make my debut, win the game and score a goal. There is no better way to start. I hope it is the first goal of many," he concluded. Endite
