The Spain international has recently been linked with a move a move away from Anfield, with big-spending Real Madrid believed to be chasing his signature.
While Alonso has not ruled out a move away from Merseyside, the midfielder insists he is content at Liverpool.
He told El Pais: "I am happy at Liverpool but in football you cannot close the doors on anything because you don't know what will happen. I do not plan to go.
"With Sami Hyypiä already gone, I am one of the senior players alongside Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard.
"There was strong interest in me from Madrid (in 2004) but Liverpool came and that is where I went. It was not a wrong decision, not for me anyway. I have played at Liverpool, a special club, and grown as a player and won titles."
