Lucas Perez has denied that he wants to leave to Emirates this summer, despite being linked with a move to Italian giants AC Milan.
The Spanish striker moved to the North London club last summer but has found game time under Arsene Wenger very limited who has often gone with Alexis Sanchez or Olivier Giroud as the main striker.
This has led to speculation about Perez’s future, but via his agent, the striker has denied this.
Like any professional, he wants to play.
When one does not play he is not happy but we knew it would be difficult and it is a long contract.
Lucas has this contract with Arsenal and he wants to succeed there. No-one has spoken of a move.
He hasn’t received any offer yet.
Perez did get an opportunity last night, and he took it with both hands, scoring the opening goal in Arsenal’s 2-0 win over non-league Sutton United.
He has now scored six goals and made three assists in his nine appearances for The Gunners.
