According to an exclusive report from TEAMtalk, the Gunners and Paris Saint-Germain have been informed that the Argentine international will remain at the Metropolitano for the rest of the season.

The 26-year-old has been a major target for Arsenal, who have kept in touch with his representatives since the summer transfer window.
