Chelsea striker Ba denies angling for Arsenal move

Chelsea striker Demba Ba insists he's not angling for a move to Arsenal. There have been reports that Ba would be joining the Gunners, a team he nearly signed for on loan in the summer allegedly, but he is adamant he is staying with the Blues.

"People talk a lot about me joining Arsenal. But there has never been an approach from them," Ba told the Sun on Sunday.

"There is nothing going on in this regard. Things are OK for me at the moment.

"It's working, as the situation is turning around for me here bit by bit. You just need a bit of time to adapt when you change clubs.

"I've been in a process of adaptation while moving between West Ham, Newcastle and Chelsea.

"But as soon as I'm given the chance to prove myself, I take it. So the fact that I've often been on the substitutes' bench is nothing serious."
