Nicolas Tagliafico Confirms Ajax Stay Amid Arsenal Rumours

Arsenal's chances of signing Ajax left-back Nicolas Tagliafico this summer appear doomed after the Argentina international confirmed he plans to stay with the Eredivisie club for at least another season.

Tagliafico revealed his intentions on the Ajax Twitter account (h/t Mark Jones of the Daily Mirror) on Friday: "Hello fans, how are you? I want to tell you that I will stay for one more season. Hopefully it will be a great year, like it is this year. A hug to all of you."

Jones also noted how Gunners head coach Unai Emery had considered Tagliafico an alternative to incumbents Nacho Monreal and Sead Kolasinac.
