Zac Guildford wants to stay in New Zealand.

A month ago the Crusaders winger was considering a move offshore but has since confirmed his immediate future lies in New Zealand and he wants to add to his 10 All Blacks caps.

Although last month's declaration resulted in All Blacks coach Steve Hansen calling him to encourage him not to leave, Guildford's desire to keep playing in New Zealand appears to have largely been driven by a lack of interest from overseas clubs.

Meanwhile, Guilford will feature for the Crusaders at 7:35pm tonight when they play the Chiefs while at 9:40pm the Rebels meet the Waratahs.
