Arsenal chairman Phillip Hill-Wood said the club is not interested in selling star striker Robin van Persie.
The Gunners chief dismissed any possibility of the club cashing in with one year left on the striker’s contact, and insists no offer from Man City or any other team has been made.
“As far as I am aware nobody has made any offer for him and he is away so we are not in any dialogue at all,” Hill-Wood said.
“We’re not in the remotest bit interested in selling him.”
The Daily Mail are reporting that 28-year-old Van Persie, who endured a disappointing Euro 2012 with Netherlands, is stalling on a 130,000-pound weekly deal.
The newspaper also claims that Juventus have had an eight-million pound offer rejected and plan to bid as high as 12 million pounds for last season’s Premier League top scorer.
Real Madrid and Barcelona have also been linked with the Arsenal man.
