Arsenal defender Carl Jenkinson's proposed January transfer move to Crystal Palace didn't fall through due to a reported lofty salary demand. The full back insists he wants to stay with the Gunners and compete for first team football.
Jenkinson has so far failed to oust Hector Bellerin from the Gunners side this season and according to reports, the England international was very close to making a move to Crystal Palace.
However, Jenkinson refutes claims that the reason his deal fell through was because of his salary demands.
The defender quipped: “I wanted to clear up some of the things that came out since the move didn’t happen, which were false with regard to the supposed excessive demands for the move to go through.
“I took it quite personally. I tend to keep away from the papers and what’s written… but when I was seeing certain things, I take it personally.”
