McArthur confirms his intentions to stay at Palace

Crystal Palace midfielder James McArthur has said he would like to end his career at the club amid talk of a move away from Selhurst Park this week, according to Football London.

The Scotland international has been linked with a switch to boyhood club Rangers and newly promoted Cardiff City, however, he has no intentions of leaving the London club.

On the speculation, the Eagles midfielder said:

I am not bothered, I am a Palace player and I love it here. I want to stay here and I would love to finish my career here. It is a great bunch of boys, the fans are amazing, and the manager and everyone around the club has been brilliant since I stepped into the place.

The 30-year old enjoyed a good season, making 35 appearances in a Palace side that steered comfortably away from relegation under Roy Hodgson. After a torrid start to the campaign, the Eagles were able to turn their fortunes around, securing a highly impressive finish in the Premier League.

This will be McArthur’s fifth season at the club, having made 130 appearances and scoring 16 goals in a Palace shirt thus far.
