Xhaka 'very happy' at Arsenal amid rumours of Borussia Monchengladbach return

The midfielder says he would like to stay in London despite rumours linking him with a German move

Granit Xhaka has moved to shut down speculation that he could depart Arsenal for a return to Borussia Monchengladbach, with the Switzerland captain insisting that he is "very happy" at the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners midfielder originally moved to north London from the Bundesliga outfit, and he has established himself as a core squad member under Mikel Arteta and predecessor Unai Emery.

With Arsenal facing the looming threat of a season without international football, however, rumours have run rampant that Xhaka could reunite with Gladbach - but now, he has closed the door on any discussions of an impending exit.
