Micah Richards has admitted he is 'flattered' to be linked with Arsenal - but remains committed to Manchester City.
Press reports over the weekend claimed the Gunners could be lining up a £7million bid for the powerful defender.
Richards, though, has reiterated that he sees his foreseeable future at the City of Manchester Stadium.
"It's always flattering being linked with a club like Arsenal, and they have one of the best managers in the world in Arsene Wenger," Richards told his official website.
"However, as I said before, I'm happy at Manchester City and believe that the club is going in the right direction."
Last week, Richards moved to label rumours linking him with Wigan Athletic and Bolton Wanderers as 'utterly ludicrous'.
