Ki Sung-Yueng plays down rumours of interest from Arsenal

Ki plays down Arsenal rumours

Celtic midfielder Ki Sung-Yeung has insisted that he has no reason to believe rumours of interest from Arsenal and Atletico Madrid are true.

The 23-year-old has been linked with Arsene Wenger's side over the past two weeks after turning in a series of impressive performances for South Korea during the Olympic Games.

After claiming a bronze medal at London 2012, Ki told reporters that he has yet to make a decision on his future.

Ki said: "I'm not sure, I haven't heard anything about that.

"I just need some rest now and to spend some time with my family, and then I will think about my future."

Arsenal have also been linked with Ki's Celtic teammate Victor Wanyama and Real Madrid's Nuri Sahin as they look to bolster their midfield options this summer.
