Mikel Arteta has responded to Nicolas Pepe after the Arsenal winger cast doubt over his future at the club.
The Ivorian has been surplus to requirements this season with Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Gabriel Martinelli all above him in the pecking order. Pepe has only managed one goal in the Premier League this year and these struggles have been a common theme throughout his time in north London.
The 26-year-old has failed to live up to his £72million price tag after Arsenal signed him for Lille in the summer of 2019. There were reports that he was going to leave in January, but nothing materialised.
