Ajaccio coach insists on Adrian Mutu stay

Ajaccio coach Albert Emon has said he is confident that Adrian Mutu will not leave the club this summer.

The Romanian striker has been linked with a move away from the French club following his announcement that he will retire from football at the end of the 2013-14 season.

"He's under contract," Emon told French radio station RMC. "At the moment, we're only talking about the matches we have to play. But I know he feels good here. I get the feeling from him that he will still be an Ajaccio player next season.

"For the first five or six months of this season, he suffered a lot, because he hadn't played that much the previous season.

"But he has bounced back really well; he's scoring important goals. With him in the side, our attack is considerably more powerful."

Mutu joined Ajaccio last summer.
