Nolito rules out January move from Celta

Celta Vigo star Nolito has ruled out leaving the club in the January transfer window.

The Spain international has long been linked with a move to Barcelona, while Arsenal have also been rumoured to be monitoring his form in La Liga.

"God will decide my future. I'm not leaving in January. I'm happy in Vigo," he told Radio Marca.

With Eduardo Berizzo's side having already beaten Barca 4-1 this term, Nolito has now warned Madrid to expect a similar test when they meet at Balaidos on Saturday.

"We'll try to play as we always do. They're a great team and they're favourites. We're going to play as equals, without any fear," he said.

"If Celta are sharp, we can do a lot of damage to Madrid."

"Madrid are safer with Ramos. He's one of the best in the world," he added.
