Bacary Sagna plays down Arsenal exit talk

Bacary Sagna says that he is in talks with Arsenal over a new contract, rather than seeking an exit from the club.

Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has distanced himself from speculation that has linked him with a move away from the club.

Recent reports have suggested that the full-back had decided to return to his native France, with both Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco said to be interested in his services.

However, the 30-year-old has played down the reports by revealing that he is in discussion with the Gunners over an extension to his contract, which has 12 months left to run.

"We are still talking [about a new contract]," he told Gulf News. "I never said I wanted to leave the club, but there are some journalists who want to speculate as I have just one year to go.

"The fact is that I am still at Arsenal and I am looking forward to playing next season. Arsenal made me grow as a player and as a man. People have been talking about me going back to France, but at the moment I am at Arsenal."

Sagna joined Arsenal back in 2007 from Auxerre.
