"If Arsenal say, 'We want you' I don't think about leaving," Elneny told British media. "It's my family for six years. I love this club.

"I always love a challenge and give 100% all the time. I don't decide who plays but I keep going in training to show how good I am and to make him (manager Mikel Arteta) play me.

"If I don't play, I keep going until I get my chance."

Arsenal is fourth in the league with five matches left. It plays at West Ham United on Sunday.
