Arsenal defender Saliba set to snub Real Madrid; I'm happy in London Arsenal defender William Saliba says that he is happy at the club and is looking forward to extending his stay at the North London English Premier League outfit.

Arsenal defender William Saliba says that he is happy at the club and is looking forward to extending his stay at the North London English Premier League outfit.

French defender Saliba 23, considered one of the best young defenders in world football has been linked heavily with Spanish giants Real Madrid according to Spanish Press reports.

Saliba, who joined the Gunners in 2019 from French Club Rennes has been a key part of the Arsenal revolution that has seen the club return to competing at the top of the Premier League and UEFA Champions League.

However with consecutive second place league finishes behind current Champions Manchester City and seemingly out of this year's title race with Liverpool far ahead, Saliba's future has been again in the spotlight.

The former Marseille defender though is not having any of that talk.

"I am really happy here at Arsenal. I have 2 years and half on my contract and I want to continue here, he is quoted by Italian Journalist Fabrizio Romano.

“I want to win big things with Arsenal. If you leave this club and you don’t win anything then the fans will forget about you. I wanna win here”.

Arsenal face the prospect of yet another trophyless season with the Champions League seemingly their only hope of silverware this season.

They tackle Dutch side PSV in the return leg of their last 16 tie having won the first leg 7-1 in record breaking fashion last week in Eindhoven.
