Carlos Vela has admitted that he would like to make his loan move to Real Sociedad a permanent one.
Sociedad have borrowed the Mexican international from Arsenal, whom he joined in 2005.
Despite admitting that he owes the Gunners a lot, Vela has revealed that he is unhappy with life at the Emirates Stadium.
"I would stay at Real," Vela told El Diario Vasco. "I am happy and the people support me.
"I owe Arsenal affection and gratitude for the opportunity that they gave me, but I was not happy there and this affected my work.
"It was hard day to day and, when it came to training, I was thinking about going home. Here, however, I am happy and have made good friends."
Vela has scored 11 goals for Arsenal.
