http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429’s manager, Arsene Wenger has gone on to rule out the possibility of The Walcott leaving Arsenal in the January transfer window, as the manager has stated that there is no chance of him letting the winger leave at this point.
The attacker is currently left with only six months on his current contract with the North London club, but that doesn’t seem to be bothering the manager.
The player and the team can’t seem to come to terms on a new deal, as they have constantly been delaying him extending his current contract with the team.
Given the way things are going, between the player and the club, a number of other teams have started to show their interest in wanting to land the player.
So far, the likes of Manchester United and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 are reported to be interested in landing the player, but so far neither one of them have approached the Gunners over the possibility of making a sale.
When talking about Walcott and his future at the Emirates, Wenger is reported to have said: "We will not sell Theo in January. That is for sure.
"He has to make his mind up now and I hope the decision taken by the other players will help him to do that.”
"My gut feeling is that he belongs to this club and that I hope he will do it and sign for us. I have always been convinced he will stay.”
"But it is not imminent, it is not as far as that. We know that once he's made up his mind it will be quick."
The manager was then questioned over the pay scale that Walcott was looking to pocket, and whether the price that he was asking for, was a fair one.
In response to that, Wenger went on to add: "I never see football like that. You never fix yourself a limit on financial restrictions.”
"The question, at the end of the day, is can you pay what the player wants? And does it fit with your wage structure?”
It is now a wait to see just what the future holds in store for Walcott and whether he will stick around at the club or not.
