Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has confirmed that forward Joel Campbell will remain with the Premier League side this season.
The Costa Rica ace played a prominent role in Saturday's 5-1 thumping of Benfica in the Emirates Cup, scoring once before setting up another for Yaya Sanogo in slick fashion.
Speculation was rife earlier this week that Campbell was poised for a fourth successive loan spell away from north London, with Galatasaray touted as a possible destination.
However, Wenger, who initially signed the 22-year-old back in 2011, says that the youngster will finally cut his teeth with the Gunners during the 2014-15 campaign.
"Campbell has done very well. I like the way he plays," he told Sky Sports News.
"He is good on the ball, creative and collectively as well he has a good balance between individual skill and collective attitude - that's not easy to find and there is no reason to let him go."
Arsenal face AS Monaco at the Emirates Stadium later today in their last pre-season clash ahead of next week's Community Shield meeting with Manchester City at Wembley.
