Mikel Arteta has no plans to quit Arsenal

Arsenal Midfielder Mikel Arteta has squashed rumors
linking him away from the Northlondon club, stating
categorically that he's enjoying life at the Emirates.
Information Nigeria understands.

The Italian press believes the 32-year old is close to
signing for Fiorentina, but both the player and his Agent
have denied such move.

The Spaniard recently celebrated an Facup Triumph with
his team, and many tipped a return to his former club
Everton, as he came under scrutiny for some poor
displays, most especially in big games last season.
Age factor made many speculate an imminent departure.

But his Agent Inaki Ibanez has poured cold water to the
rumors by denying any interest from Fiorentina
Ibanez said: "I have never spoken with Fiorentina. Mikel
has one year more on his contract and he has no desire
to go away from Arsenal.

"He's fine there and he's also the team's captain. I have
not spoken with any club.

"If he'd like to come to Fiorentina? No, we're talking
about Arsenal's captain, with all due respect to
Fiorentina, he is fine there and he does not want to
leave."
