Olivier Giroud is not interested in leaving Arsenal during the upcoming transfer window, his agent says.
A combination of injuries, a Euro 2016 hangover and Alexis Sanchez's redeployment as a central striker has restricted Giroud to just two starts this season - both in the Champions League.
The France international has still managed to score five goals, including three from the bench in the Premier League, but faces new threats to his chances of first-team football with Danny Welbeck's return imminent and Lucas Perez finding his feet.
Despite those obstacles Giroud will be going nowhere in January, according to Michael Manuello, who told footmercato.net he had not been in touch with any Italian club and said: "Olivier is very well at Arsenal.
"He will make his season here. Nothing is possible in January. He has no plans to move during the winter transfer window "
Giroud, speaking last month, said he had no concerns about his long-term future at the Emirates.
"I have no doubts over my Arsenal future," he said.
"As with each year, there is competition for places at the big clubs. There are a lot of attackers with different styles of play."
