Marouane Chamakh has insisted that he is staying at Arsenal in order to prove that he can be "useful" for the Gunners.
The Moroccan has been heavily linked with a move back to former club Bordeaux following a disappointing two years in London.
However, the 28-year-old believes that manager Arsene Wenger still has faith in him.
"Am I going back to Bordeaux? For now, no," The Metro quotes Chamakh as saying.
"I have spoken to Wenger and I will stay at Arsenal. I think he trusts my work and I will have opportunities in the first team.
"My agents have been ordered to reject bids that come from other clubs because I want to prove I can be useful for the Gunners."
Paris Saint-Germain and Lyon are also thought to be interested in Chamakh.
