Vermaelen, 27, has been restricted to only one Premier League appearance this season after a reoccurrence of a previous back injury. Despite his lack of first-team action the Belgian international has attracted the interest of Juventus and Napoli, however his agent, Alex Kroes, distanced his client from a move away from the Emirates. “We do not want to take part in this ‘game’, he told NapoliCalcioLive. “I want to distance myself from, and deny, these rumours. “I deny absolutely everything.” “Ill have to think about that when its necessary. January is still a few months ahead” Vermaelen spoke earlier this week that he may be forced to leave Arsenal to ensure first-team football and bolster his chances of a place in the Belgium national squad for next summers World Cup in Brazil. He said: Ill have to think about that when its necessary. January is still a few months ahead. Of course, never playing will not be the ideal situation for me to go to the World Cup, thats for sure. People ask me if I panic because Im not playing a lot but Im not. I have spoken to the manager but it will remain private between us. Things can happen in a split second and change my situation. That can happen tomorrow or next weekend.
