It may appear as though Cesc Fabregas, Gael Clichy and Samir Nasri want to leave Arsenal, but Tomas Rosicky is determined to stay put and succeed.

Despite only one year remaining on his contract and a host of his team-mates being unsettled at the club, Rosicky remains content at the Emirates Stadium after receiving assurances from Arsene Wenger about his future.

Speaking to iDNES.cz, Rosicky said: "I don't want to go somewhere where I would have it easier and where even the ordinary life would be easier for me. I want to achieve something with Arsenal.

"On Monday, I am starting pre-season with Arsenal. Before vacation I was speaking with coach Wenger and he told me he counted on my services and that there was no intention of selling me."

And, despite speculation growing surrounding Fabregas' potential return to Barcelona, Rosicky also revealed he hopes he will still be a team-mate next season.

He added: "I was talking to him on the phone recently, but I don't know. Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell. I would like to see him stay because he is a good mate as well as an excellent football player."
