Hassan Yebda insists he is happy at Portsmouth Football Club.

Unlike his Algerian compatriot Nadir Belhadj, who wants to leave Pompey in the New Year, on-loan Benfica ace Yebda wants to ensure the club retain their Premier League status.

"The first thing is to keep Portsmouth in the Premier League ," he said in the Daily Express.

"We are in a bad situation but we have good players and I think we will stay up. I am very happy at the club and I would like to stay in English football, hopefully here."
