Kolasinac rejects West Ham to stay and challenge Tierney at Arsenal

Arsenal defender Sead Kolasinac has changed his mind about leaving the club.

Mikel Arteta informed Kolasinac that he was behind Kieran Tierney on the left-back depth chart.

West Ham United and former club Schalke had registered an interest in the Bosnia international.

But according to the Guardian, Kolasinac is not interested in a move to London Stadium and instead wants to fight for his place at Arsenal.

Arteta had been keen to shift the 27-year-old, but he will now likely stay at the Emirates to provide competition for Tierney.
