Czech midfield schemer Tomas Rosicky has insisted that he is set to remain at Arsenal next season, and quashed talk of a summer switch.
The 32-year-old made just ten appearances for the Gunners in the Premier League this season, as Arsene Wenger’s men finished fourth.
Rosicky’s contract at the Emirates Stadium expires next summer and there had been talk of an imminent exit.
He has denied that though.

"After the season I spoke with manager Arsene Wenger and the conclusion is that Arsenal want to keep me", he was quoted as saying by fotbal.idnes.cz.
"Of course, nothing can be ruled out, but I expect to stay."
However, beyond the 2013/14 campaign a return to his native Czech Republic has been floated.
Asked about a return to first club Sparta Prague, he said: "No, not yet. I have one year to go on my contract and I know nothing about not staying.
"Now the coach is counting on me."
