Arsene Wenger had cleared all doubts concerning Theo Walcott's contract issue after revealing the winger is set to remain at the club.
Walcott's refusal to sign a new contract fueled speculations about a possible move to Manchester City.The Englishman whose contract expires at the end of the season reportedly rejected a £75 000-a-week offer but Wenger is confident all would be resolved soon.
"His situation is simple - he will stay with us and play for us. No [he will not leave this window]," said Wenger.
"Theo has one year to go [on his contract] and that is simple. We have to find an agreement with him on whether to extend the contract or not for a longer period. That is what we want to do.
"I think Theo loves the club. Contrary to what some media have written he is not obsessed by money, there is just a little difference that we hope we can, at some stage, find an agreement with. That is it basically."
