Real Madrid's Luis Figo pledged on Saturday to see out his contract at the Spanish club even though he acknowledged he was no longer an automatic choice.
The unsettled Portuguese winger has one year left on his current deal and has been linked with a move.
Figo came off the bench to score the winner from the penalty spot in Real's 3-2 pre-season win over China's Beijing Guo'an before making it clear he wants to stay at the club.
"This is a complicated situation...it's difficult for a player," he told reporters. "I know I'm not the coach's first or even second choice in my position. But I want to see out my contract. I will do all I can for my club."
England striker Michael Owen played wide on the right for Real in the first half before Figo's arrival in the second half.
Figo, a former world player of the year, had been a pre-season target for European champions Liverpool until Real coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo warned players unhappy about his selection policies that they should leave.
