Unai Emery drops update on Danny Welbeck's future

Arsenal manager Unai Emery has ruled out the possibility of Danny Welbeck leaving the club after the English transfer window closed on Thursday.

The England international has been strongly linked with the likes of Valencia and Besiktas of late but Emery has now dismissed the probability of him leaving the Emirates.

In a report covered by The Mirror, Emery stressed that he is not willing to part ways with his first-team players barring Carl Jenkinson, David Ospina and Joel Campbell, who have been deemed surplus to requirements.

"We only have three players: Carl Jenkinson, David Ospina and Joel Campbell, with the possibility to leave. But the other players are with us and we are going to work in the Emirates the day before the match with all the players," he said.

Arsenal begin their Premier League campaign with a tough challenge against Manchester City at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. Shortly after that, they have another testing game against Chelsea on the road.
