Brazilian midfielder Denilson has admitted that he does not know whether he will return to Arsenal when his loan spell at Sao Paulo comes to an end in the summer.

The 24-year-old, who left the Gunners to join his hometown club on a temporary basis in July 2011, remains under contract at the Emirates Stadium until June 2014.

"I will see out my contract [with Sao Paulo] which ends on June 30 2013," Denilson told Globo Esporte." But I don't know what will happen after that.

"I hope my situation is solved quickly so I have nothing to worry about and so I can remain calm for the rest of the season."

Denilson has made 96 Premier League appearances for Arsenal.
