Feyenoord attacking midfielder Orkun Kokcu says he is leaving his future plans up to his father and agent, following reports he is being pursued by Arsenal.

There were claims in the Turkish media last week that the Gunners were lining up a €25m (£22m) offer for the 19-year-old, but the player has refused to be drawn on speculation:

“It doesn’t really matter to me, frankly. My father and my agent are busy with that. I try to isolate myself from that. That works fine. Fortunately, I am a footballer and not an agent.”

“I want to make the best of it next season and want to be as fit as possible when the competition starts again. For now, I’m only working with Feyenoord. I have a contract until 2023, so I’m not in a hurry. When the moment arrives and I feel good about it, we’ll see.”

Kokcu has reportedly been watched by both Arsenal and Chelsea over the past year, while La Liga side Sevilla are also keen on snapping up the teenager.

Feyenoord’s sporting director Frank Arneson confirmed last month that the midfielder is being pursued by four clubs, including Sevilla, but no official bids had been made for the player.

With Kokcu believed to be refusing to sign a contract extension, it is thought that the Eredivisie side will decide to cash in when the transfer window reopens so they can reinvest the funds in making their own signings.
