Silva has been one of the most sought after commodities in this transfer window, with clubs such as AS Roma, Manchester United, Liverpool and Barcelona all tentatively linked with a move for the Valencia winger.
His club have recently stated that he will not be departing, and the 22-year-old added that he is definitely not leaving Spain.
The Gran Canaria-born forward has made it clear that he would only leave to join Barça, and insists that any transfer away from Los Ches will not be financially motivated. Last summer, Silva signed a seven-year deal with Valencia.
Prices as high as €25million have been touted for any deal involving the player, as Valencia keep one eye on their precarious financial situation. Both Silva and fellow European champion David Villa have been suggested as assets to be cashed in to alleviate pressure at the Mestalla.
Of the issue, Silva told the Daily Star: "I have no desire to play in England. My club know my decision and it will not change.
"If I leave Valencia, my dream will be to go to Barcelona. I know there is interest from some big clubs in England, but I do not just want to move for the money.
“England is one of the best leagues in the world, but I think that Spain is superior."
