Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Alphonse Areola has insisted that he has not rejected a new deal with the club, contrary to reports in the local press.

Earlier this week it was claimed that the 24-year-old, who has been a part of PSG's setup for the past decade, was not interested in the offer of a new contract.

Areola is said to have informed the Parisian outfit that he will instead see out his existing terms, due to expire in 2019, having seen his name linked with a number of European sides.

The France international has hit back at the rumours, however, which he describes as "totally unfounded".

"I am currently concerned with two very important matches with the French team," he posted on Twitter. "The rumours about my future are totally unfounded even though I understand that the media have to tell or write some stories and that Paris Saint-Germain arouses a lot of attention.

"I want to say that I am attached to the club that has the ambition to win everything, to the city of Paris, and that I am very focused on my season. Everything said about me is wrong! We'll talk about my future in time and internally with the club."

Areola has ousted Kevin Trapp to become PSG's first-choice keeper this season, starting each of the club's last 11 games in all competitions.
