Chamakh rules out Arsenal exit talk

Arsenal striker Marouane Chamakh has denied talk that he will be quitting London for a return to France. The Morocco international has struggled to impress since arriving at the Emirates in 2010.

There has been talk that Chamakh could even return to his former club, Bordeaux, but at this point there has been no confirmed talk of a transfer.


"Am I going back to Bordeaux? For now, no. I have spoken to Wenger and I will stay at Arsenal. I think he trusts my work and I will have opportunities in the first team," said Chamakh.


"I left Bordeaux to improve as a player and I think I can continue for this club. My agents have been ordered to reject bids that come from other clubs because I want to prove I can be useful for the Gunners."
