Speaking with AS, Smit said: "First and foremost, I want to prove I can make it here.
"The interest from Barcelona and Real Madrid is positive, but if I went there I don't know how often I'd play. They're excellent teams, without a doubt, perhaps the two biggest clubs in the world, but there's nothing concrete.
"There's just interest. I haven't shown everything I can do at AZ yet. I think the potential is there, but in terms of goals and assists I haven't been exceptional yet. I could have scored a few more goals.
"This year will be different, but I have to play."
