Alex Iwobi has denied quotes attributed to him that he plans to leave Arsenal.

In an interview over the weekend, Iwobi was said to be concerned about the potential arrival of Wilfried Zaha from Crystal Palace in the coming weeks.

But Iwobi has now sought to clarify his comments, claiming that he did not mean what he said - and insists that he hopes Arsenal go on to sign top players.

“Fake news and click bait," he tweeted, alongside a screenshot of the headlines.

“I don't know why some newspapers enjoy twisting words.

“I hope we sign world-class players at Arsenal and progress as a team. I'm looking forward to the new season."
