Arsenal's Emmanuel Eboue: I Know Nothing About Paris St. Germain Speculation

The Ivory Coast international has been tipped to depart the Gunners this summer...

Emmanuel Eboue full of smiles, having scored his first ever Premier League goal for Arsenal in their 3-1 win over Bolton Wanderers.
Arsenal's Emmanuel Eboue has moved to distance himself from speculation linking him with a move to Ligue 1 outfit Paris St. Germain.

It is thought that the 26-year-old could be on his way out of the Emirates Stadium during the close-season, having slipped down the pecking order over the last season or two.

Although he scored four goals during the 2008/09 campaign, the utility man, who can play in defence or midfield, was named in the starting eleven on just 27 occasions.

While the 24-time capped Ivory Coast international admits he would like to play first-team football on a more regular basis, he has hinted that he would be content to stay with the north London club and fight for a spot in the side.

Apparently, reports in France are suggesting that PSG are preparing a €7 million bid (£5.9m) for Eboue, but he is adamant he knows nothing about it.

"I'm not aware of any contact with PSG. They are a good team, however, I have a contract with Arsenal," Eboue told Sky Sports.

"My ambition is to stay and play but because of a lack of first-team play, I'm not happy. I want to play."
