Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger insists Patrick Vieira is staying at Highbury.

Wenger has rejected mounting speculation that Vieira is set to leave the Gunners out of frustration at the recent lack of silverware.

Wenger told The Mirror: "There is no problem with Patrick and I don't know what all the fuss is about.

"There is no meeting planned with him. As far as I'm concerned, he is happy at Arsenal and will be with us at the start of the season.

"There are so many rumours about Patrick's future but that is all they are. He is fantastic player and is a great asset to the team," Wenger said.

"At the moment I am very busy because I am trying to strengthen the squad by bringing in players, not selling them." - PA
