Rumours of a move away from New York City FC for Patrick Vieira are like the noise of the Big Apple traffic as it crawls through its famous streets – incessant.
Barely a week goes by without a new club being linked with the in-demand Frenchman, whose encouraging start to managerial life in MLS continues.
And while, as revealed by Sportsmail, things may now have got a little more serious with first love Arsenal casting amorous glances across the Atlantic, they remain relaxed in the Bronx. They have good reason to do so.
It can be disclosed that, far from entertaining Vieira's departure, New York City are understood to be planning on having him around a little longer.
