Arsenal midfielder Alexander Hleb has denied stating he wants to quit The Gunners this summer.

Hleb's future has very much been up in the air recently with his agent Nikolai Shpilevski claiming his clients wants to leave the Emirates.

However, Hleb has finally stated his position, firstly denying reports he wants to quit and also stating he is under contract for two more years.

The Belarus international has confirmed his love of Arsenal and that he greatly respects manager Arsene Wenger for all that he has taught him.

"I have a contract at Arsenal until 2010 and now only think of the game against Germany," he told Spox.com.

Nonsense

"I have also read [that I have said I want to leave], but I do not know who has written it. That is nonsense.

"I have also read that I wanted to move because Arsenal would win nothing, this too is nonsense.

"But I would really not like to comment on the issue really because there is nothing more to say, because the club means so much to me.

"I have learned so much from Arsene Wenger. This man has always supported me and given me the chance to come to Arsenal. I would therefore never say anything negative about Arsenal.

"If I'll go, then only in a different league, in any case, in England, there is only Arsenal for me."
