Ikechukwu Uche has told Villarreal forward and fellow Nigerian Samuel Chukwueze to treat growing transfer speculation as a compliment and continue to develop at his former club.
Chukwueze's form has caught the attention of clubs across Europe, but Uche - who is highly revered at Villarreal - believes the teenager's interest will be best served by staying.
"Chukwueze is doing well at Villarreal so it's only normal to have growing speculation about his future in the media, but he is in a good place," Uche told BBC Sport.
"He should treat all this attention as a compliment and continue to grow because his impressive rise from the reserves to the first team is still fresh.
"Villarreal is a good club, he is being taken care of and he's surrounded by quality players that will help him grow.
"The people there are dedicated to protecting and improving him, so there is no pressure on him."
Ikechukwu Uche is revered at Villarreal where he played a big role in helping the club gain promotion back to the top flight in 2014.
Nigeria's fourth highest scorer with 19 goals, Uche joined Villarreal from Real Zaragoza in August 2011, but was immediately loaned out to then Spanish La Liga newboys Granada, for the 2011/12 season.
But he returned to relegated Villarreal for 2012-13 and emerged as top scorer with 14 goals to lead the team back to the top flight.
In 2013-14, Uche scored another 14 goals as the club finished in sixth place to secure a Europa League spot.
He believes his compatriot Chukwueze, who is capable of playing on either flank, is capable of making bigger impact at Estadio de la Cerámica.
"I've been following his progress and I know some of the people there, so let's just say he has the potential to become a successful player at the club," Uche added.
"I haven't had a chance to speak to him but personally I want him to stay.
"I'm sure he will do what is right for his career, I'm just happy to see another African and Nigerian making a positive impact at Villarreal."
Ivorian defender Eric Bailly and DR Congo's Cedric Bakambu are two notable Africans who have recently made big-money move from Villarreal.
Chukwueze has made 13 appearances this season for Villareal, scoring four goals for the La Liga side.

Gernot Rohr will inform the Super Eagles stars to be wary of Brighton & Hove Albion loanee Percy Tau before his side trade tackles with South Africa in next month's Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Johannesburg. Tau showed how lethal he can be after coming off the bench to score against the Super Eagles in Uyo, a minute after coming off the bench as replacement for Tokelo Rantie. The former Mamelodi Sundowns sensation is South Africa's leading scorer in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers with two goals. Asked which South Africa players he'll warn his team about, Rohr told Kick Off Magazine : ''They are all good, and the whole team plays at a high level. They scored brilliant goals against Seychelles at home. ''I particularly like Percy Tau, who has impressed me, but I know that Keagan Dolly from Montpellier is injured.'' There were photos and videos of empty seats at South Africa’s last home game against Seychelles but ...
Super Eagles Technical Adviser Gernot Rohr has again left out captain Mikel John Obi from next month's crucial 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against South Africa after he named a 23-man squad for the encounter. China-based Mikel Obi, who made his debut for the country in 2005, has not played for the team since the World Cup in Russia in June, where he led as captain. Officials have said the former Chelsea star was previously left out of the squad to allow him time to recover from niggling injuries. But he has since fully recovered and is now playing regularly for his Chinese club, Tianjin Teda. In the meantime, Rohr has recalled Sporting Charleroi striker Victor Osimhen and midfielder Mikel Agu, who is based in Portugal. Villarreal young forward Samuel Chukwueze has been handed his first call-up. Nigeria play South Africa in Johannesburg on Nov. 17 in a crucial qualifying encounter. The country's national team top Group E with nine points from fo...
