Fredrik Aursnes says he's happy at Benfica.

The Norway midfielder, 27, attracted a firm approach from Aston Villa over the summer.

But he explained: "Money means little, but I am happy at Benfica.

"I am extremely happy with where I am and right now there is no team I could imagine replacing Benfica with."

Aursnes added: "The future will have to show that. It's not something I'm thinking about right now.

"Benfica is a fantastic club, and it is not something I would trade for anything."
