Chelsea target Christian Benteke has rubbished rumours he will leave Crystal Palace to move to Stamford Bridge.
Recent reports have claimed that manager Antonio Conte has identified the Belgian and Spain's Fernando Llorente as two candidates who could be Alvaro Morata's backup next season.
But the 26-year-old says he is happy with the Eagles and wants to be part of their project next season.
"I'm very happy," he told reporters.
"I want to be part of the project of the manager and I'm looking forward for this new season. I want to perform and to score more goals and to really help the team to reach where they want to be.
"Since we came back for preseason I didn't really want to talk, but I want to be here. There's the World Cup and that's an important aspect of being with the club and you have to perform to be part of that group.
"I think with the squad that we have and the players that are coming we have to be really ambitious and have to try to play our best in the league."
