Joan Jordan fully focused on Sevilla amid Arsenal links

Sevilla midfielder Joan Jordan appears to play down links with Arsenal, saying that he will not let transfer talk distract him.

Joan Jordan has insisted that he is "super comfortable" at Sevilla amid growing speculation that he is a January transfer target for Arsenal.

The 26-year-old has reportedly caught the eye of Mikel Arteta in the Gunners' search for a new creative midfielder.

Jordan has appeared 20 times for Sevilla in all competitions this season, playing a direct part in three goals.

However, the former Eibar ace - first linked with Arsenal when Unai Emery was in charge - is not letting the transfer talk distract him.

"In the end, these are just things that come out, like the many things that were said, the rumours, when I was at Eibar," he told Estadio Deportivo ahead of Sevilla's clash with Real Betis at the weekend.

"I have always been very clear about the present... the future does not feed me, it takes away from me and does not give me the energy I need.

"My mind is genuinely here in Sevilla and on the derby. I am at a super ambitious club, and I have nothing more to say because I really am super comfortable here, like I was when I arrived here.

"Things can come out, but I tell you my mind today and the people that know me can back me up, it's not that I'm avoiding the question just that really, my mind is on the derby."

Arteta admitted last week that Arsenal will have to offload players before bringing in any new faces, with Sead Kolasinac so far departing on loan to Schalke 04.
