Emirates Stadium full-back not eyeing move to France.

Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has vowed to honour his contract at the Emirates Stadium after denying he is on his way to Paris Saint-Germain.

Sanga was linked with a move to the French giants in the transfer window, but remained an Arsenal player and the France international has vowed to remain that way until at least the end of next season when his contract is due to expire.

The 29-year-old was understood to be one of the star names manager Arsene Wenger will offload in the summer as he freshens the Arsenal squad up, but Sagna does not intend on leaving the Emirates to join PSG or any other club.

“The January transfer rumours regarding PSG? I am 100 per cent devoted to my club,” Sagna told L’Equipe. “I am only thinking about defending the colours of Arsenal until the end of my contract.

“The fans are angry with me because they heard about PSG’s interest, but I am not responsible for that. I have never had any contact.”

Sagna had a spell on the sidelines earlier in the season and was expected to face a tough challenge to get his right-back berth back from the impressive Carl Jenkinson, whose form earned him a call-up to the full England squad.

He has gained that position back since overcoming and has kept former Charlton defender Jenkinson at bay, but it is expected that the younger full-back will make the position his own next season – if not sooner in a Gunners defence that is in need of some stability.
