Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger insists Tomas Rosicky will not leave.
The creative midfielder is out of contract in the summer and will turn 34 in October.
"Tomas Rosicky will stay. We have an agreement with him and it will come out soon," the Arsenal boss said.
"I am absolutely adamant he has to stay at the club."
Wenger added: "When he arrived here he was less a tactical player and more the 'Mozart from Prague' and he was purely creative, offensive player.
"Today he is a real organiser on the pitch as well. I like to have him in the team because he gives a real structure to our team."
