Joshua Guilavogui will reportedly reject outside interest to remain with Atletico Madrid this summer.
The French midfielder spent the second half of last season on loan with Saint-Etienne after failing to gain a spot in the Atletico side and it had been suggested that a permanent deal was on the cards.
However, according to Football Espana, the 23-year-old is intent on improving himself to head coach Diego Simeone in pre-season.
The former Toulon youth has made five international appearances for his country.
