Riise has been linked with a move to the Mestalla after Valencia manager Ronald Koeman confirmed his interest in the attacking left back. However the Reds number 6 has played down talks of his departure.
In an interview with TV2 Riise said "Look at the games I've played, the boss would never have let me play those games if he didn't have confidence in me.... I have to play better and better for each game, then I'll get a new contract." He finished by saying, "I'll stay here".
