Arsenal full-back Bacary Sagna has distanced himself from reports linking him with a move to Real Madrid - and declared he is "100% committed" to the Gunners.
The defender was quoted in the French press as "not against the idea" of a switch to the Bernabeu as part of new president Florentino Perez's revolution.
"These comments are not accurate and I am not aware of any speculation linking me to another club. I am 100% committed to Arsenal. This is a great club and I am proud to wear the shirt," Sagna said in a statement.
"I have seen the quotes attributed to me in the French media and I just want to put the record straight.
"I am looking forward to returning for pre-season training in July and preparing for the challenges that next season will bring.
"We have a great squad of players at the club and I know that we can achieve something together at Arsenal, my focus is nowhere else."

Sagna is a big star!! Do you know what it means to wear an Arsenal jersey? I am with you, Sagna..let us look at the season that lies ahead!!
terry k, useless yourself... u r just jaleous because Sagna earns more than your whole family. Go and ask him a job. u can be better in cleaning his house or sucking his @#$%!!!
Sagna has earned a fan in me. Great statement. His commitment is a shinning example.
Terry K, Sagna is actually French, and even if he was from a country in Africa, what make you assume he would be an illegal immigrant? I wish Yahoo was banning all the muppets who shout abuses and post racist comments hidden behind their computer...Gooners 4ever!!
Terry K, hope Sagna sues you for slander. Do you honestly think any club of that size and stature would not ensure that any foreign player is here legally?????????
Hell ya!
At least our players committed to Arsenal,and don't like reading their names in the morning newspaper's transfer gossip pages.
This is why we would win the EPL next year!
Gooners 4ever!!
well we will see if he means what he says
Well said like a true Arsenal player a pity some of the others can't make clear statements like that and stick to it. Good on ya Sagna
