However, the midfielder’s agent, Manuel Garcia Quilon, recently admitted that he has ha no contact from The Gunners and expects his client to remain at Benfica for the foreseeable future.
Quilon said:
‘The only interest from Arsenal in the player is what I have seen in the Portuguese press.
‘I can guarantee I have not had any contact with any club about a possible departure from Benfica.
‘Javi is happy at the club and he is very happy to stay in Lisbon. He is just thinking about winning the league and playing a big role in the Champions League.’
