ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger claims midfielder Alexander Hleb is going nowhere.

Media reports on Friday morning had quotes from the Belarus international's agent Nikolai Shpilevski claiming his client was on his way out of the Emirates Stadium.

He said: "Alexander is preparing to make the most important moves of his life. He is leaving Arsenal even though they want to offer him a new long-term contract and better conditions."

But Gunners boss Wenger claims he has no reason to believe that the 27-year-old, wont be with the club next season.

He told Arsenal TV: "You cannot stop people talking but at the moment there is nothing (to discuss).

"I believe that usually all the players want to stay, and I expect this team to say 'let's make a pact together, come back next year and win'.

"That's what I expect them to do and my priority is to keep the team together, add what I think can help us to even be better and then see from there."
