Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta insists Emile Smith Rowe isn't for sale this month.

The midfielder has been linked with Newcastle and West Ham.

But Arteta says Smith Rowe is a required player and will get chances in the second-half of the season.

"This is still the biggest part of the season to play now and we have to be patient, and he will have his chances," the Spaniard said.

For is part, Smith Rowe won't agitate for a move away.
