Kjaer commits to Palermo
Monday 20 April, 2009

Highly rated Palermo defender Simon Kjaer insists he is happy playing in Rosanero and does not plan to leave Sicily this summer.

The 20-year-old Dane is in his first season with Palermo and has already caught the attention of Italy's biggest clubs.

Inter, Juventus and Milan are reportedly drawing up bids for Kjaer this summer, but the hot prospect would like to repay the faith Palermo have shown in him.

“I will definitely stay at Palermo, I have a contract with the Rosanero and I will respect it,” the former FC Midtjylland youngster said.

“I would once again like to thank the Palermo fans who have supported me and continually spurred me on this year.”

Kjaer scored his third goal of the season in Palermo's 4-1 victory over Bologna on Sunday. He has made 16 starting appearances in 2008-09.
