Clichy pledges future to Arsenal

Gael Clichy has moved to rubbish the reports that he will be leaving the club in the summer.

The 25-year-old’s contract is set to expire at the end of next season, prompting rumours that he could be on the way out in the summer.

“Wenger persuaded me to come here at a time when I was receiving offers from other clubs, and I have to say that my present and my future is with Arsenal,” Clichy told The People.

“I am leaving talks over my contract with my agent so that I can focus on my football.

“I know that there are rumours about me going elsewhere but I have nothing to say about that.

“I have always wanted to be at a club where I am content. Money is important but it is not a decisive factor. All I want is to win a title – that’s my ultimate ambition.”
