LA Galaxy midfielder Gyasi Zardes' impressive 2015 season for club and country has raised his profile on the international stage, but his coach and club president maintain he won't be leaving the team.
Zardes, who was born in Los Angeles and came up through the Galaxy academy, is coming off a breakout year in which he scored nine goals in 33 games for LA and netted three times in 19 appearances for the U.S. national team.
Despite rumoured interest from English club Reading and Belgium's Genk, coach Bruce Arena and president Chris Klein say Zardes will still be with the club in 2016.
