The 24-year-old had a season to forget at the Emirates,
suffering numerous injury setbacks as he and his team-mates
finished the campaign trophyless.
Some have suggested that the former Feyenoord man has had enough of
the Premier League and its all-action style, and will seek to leave
North London in search of a less injury-riddled existence on the
continent.
But the 24-year-old rubbished such claims, insisting he is in the
process of extending his current deal with the Gunners, who he
believes can achieve great success in the very near future.
“I’ve never thought about leaving for a less physical league like
Spain,” said the Dutch international, who will travel to
Switzerland for next month’s European Championship.
“I’m a committed Arsenal lad and discussing a new contract. It’s
not the money which is important, it’s keeping this team
together.
“Collectively we can become something very special.”
he's a good player and can definitely help arsenal be
champions, provided he stay out of injuries
