Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger claims he is not worried by the continuing transfer speculation surrounding AC Milan target Emmanuel Adebayor.

The Togo striker has sent out conflicting messages over his desire to remain with the Gunners this week.

Adebayor claimed on Friday that he was happy to stay at the Emirates Stadium and was set to discuss his future with Wenger at a meeting next week.

But just hours later, Adebayor then suggested he would be tempted by a possible move to Milan.

The Rossoneri have made the 24-year-old former AS Monaco striker their main summer transfer target.

However, Wenger has shrugged off Adebayor's latest comments and insists he has no plans to sit down with the unsettled player.

"He's under contract and that's quite simple. I can tell you as manager of Arsenal I'm not worried," said the Frenchman.

"Of course I expect him to be at Arsenal next season - he's under contract."
