Arsenal have played down reports that striker Dennis Bergkamp will leave the club at the end of the season.
The Dutchman has been quoted as saying he would leave Highbury when his contract expires in May.
Speaking in today's News of the World, Bergkamp said: "My family and I are very happy in England but when my contract ends I will go back to Holland. I left there 10 years ago but it will always be my home."
A club spokesperson said: "Reports suggesting that Dennis Bergkamp will retire at the end of the season are somewhat premature. "Dennis would like to stress that he has not actually stated that he will be retiring at the end of this season."
