The 29-year-old Serbia international was reported as saying earlier in the month that he was becoming frustrated at Anfield, as the Reds continue to endure a frustrating start to the season.
Roy Hodgson's men fell to Premier League new-boys Blackpool on Sunday, a game in which Jovanovic came off the bench, but the former Standard Liege man denies claiming he wants to leave.
"I haven't spoken to any journalists other than Liverpool's own club journalists," he told the club's official website.
"I am angry. I am new here and all I'm trying to do is work and do what's best for the team. It's not important that I am on the bench.
"I have signed a contract for three years and I want to stay for three years.
"I feel very good at Liverpool and better players than me sit on the bench whether it's here or anywhere else. I have to learn and work to be better - it's not a problem.
"I expected a challenge. I expected sometimes to be in the team and sometimes not.
"And also, I don't want to speak about myself - it's much more important to talk about the team."
Liverpool will have to wait to get back on the winning trail until after the international break, but they face a tough Merseyside derby at Everton in their next game.
