Curtis, who joined the club from Derry City during the summer, has chipped in with six goals and six assists while playing predominantly as a left-sided attacker.
“There are massive clubs out there but I’ve only just got here. I’ve only been here four months,” Curtis said in an interview with the i newspaper.
“I’m a Pompey lad. I love this club and the backroom staff, and everyone has just been so kind to me, so lovely and welcoming. I’m not ready to go nowhere yet, so all that is just rumours really. I’m proud to be here.”
Having been named in Martin O’Neill’s latest squad, Curtis will hope to make his senior international debut later this month.
The Republic of Ireland host Northern Ireland in a friendly on 15 November before concluding their Nations League campaign away to Denmark on 19 November.
