Marc-Andre ter Stegen: Arda Turan will not be leaving Barcelona
Turan, 30, has been heavily linked with a move away from Barcelona this summer.
It is claimed Arsenal are interested in a £25million move for the Turkey international.
The Gunners are set for a huge overhaul at the end of the season with star duo Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil potentially leaving the Emirates.
Arsenal view Turan as the ideal candidate to replace Ozil should he depart.
He has even bought a house in London which fuelled speculation over a move to the Premier League.

But Arsenal have been dealt a huge blow in their pursuit of Turan with Ter Stegen insisting that he will be going nowhere.
“Arda is staying here next season,” Ter Stegen told Turkish newspaper Hurriyet.
Turan has made 29 appearances for Barcelona this season and is contracted to the club 2020.
