Mikel Arteta's agent, Inaki Ibanez, has insisted that his client will not leave Everton.

As rumours persist that the Spaniard could join Arsenal or Manchester United this summer, his agent has poured cold water of those claims by saying Arteta is happy where he is.

"Mikel has a wife and child and is happy in the city," Ibanez said.

Arsenal are believed to be keen to swoop for Arteta if they lose Cesc Fabregas whilst United have also shown interest although the Toffees are confident he will re-sign at Goodison Park.
