De Rossi rules out Arsenal move

The Italy international has been linked with a move to the Premier League side.

“I’ve read about it (the rumours) in the papers, but there is nothing in it,” said De Rossi.

“Roma have defined me as unavailable and I only wish to stay here.

“I was away on holiday and I read certain sums being mentioned, but I knew it wasn’t true.

“The club has always defined me as unavailable and this is what I want.”
