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."
