Keeper hopes to see captain stay at Emirates

Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny is confident team-mate Robin van Persie will remain at the club next season. Van Persie's future has been the subject of speculation with the Dutchman yet to agree a new deal at the Emirates. A number of clubs are thought to be waiting in the wings to move for Van Persie this summer with the striker putting off contract talks until the end of the season. Despite the rumours over Van Persie's future, Szczesny believes the Arsenal captain will stay at the club.

Great leader

"We really don't discuss that, it is not our business," Szczesny told the London Evening Standard. "We just want to have him at the club. We are trying to make the most of it while he is here, he is a great captain and leader of the team and we are very pleased to have him. "I'm personally confident that he will stay at Arsenal. That is where he belongs and that is where he is at his very best. "Robin does his talking on the pitch by scoring all the goals for this club and I think that shows you his commitment. We are confident that he will be staying at Arsenal."
