"Christophe loves Birmingham. He is happy where he is and enjoys playing for them," said Benguigui.
"You have to understand that I cannot tell you exactly what he is thinking.
"Christophe is his own man but I'm quite sure he will stay. It is where he wants to finish. Birmingham City are for him."
"Sure, there is interest from Liverpool. Yes, Spurs are interested. But is that surprising?
"What you have to know about Christophe is that he is a world champion. He has won trophies.
"What is important to him is to be happy, to be in an environment he enjoys.
"To be frank, he is very close to Steve Bruce, to the chairman and the players. He gets on with his team-mates. He is aware of how much the supporters love him too. He appreciates that.
"There are very good people at Birmingham and Christophe and I have been treated very well.
"He knows he owes Birmingham and he is a very honest man.
"I had dinner with Christophe on Monday and he said to me 'Michel, this team is now very good, it has improved and can improve more'."
