Arsenal have been linked with a surprise move to sign Jesse Lingard.

Reports emerged over the weekend tipping the Manchester United midfielder with a move to north London, with United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer losing confidence in the 27-year-old.

Lingard however, is set to snub a move to the Emirates as he has no interest in leaving Old Trafford.

His recent link up with super-agent Mino Raiola was not to chase a move but to extend his stay at United.

Lingard has 12 months remaining on his £110,000 deal at Old Trafford, though the club have an option to extend it by a further year.

The 27-year-old has played a bit-part role at the Theatre of Dreams this term, scoring just twice in 35 appearances for the Red Devils.

Mikel Arteta has been rotating Nicolas Pepe, Reiss Nelson and Aubameyang on the wing this season.
