Dani Ceballos has denied any lingering rift with Arsenal teammate David Luiz.

The pair had to be separated during a training ground bust-up earlier this season, though Ceballos insists there is no problem with his senior teammate.

He told El Larguero: "I have a strong temperament. From what happened (with David Luiz) to what was said was just a collision."

Also contrary to quotes attributed to him in the English press today, on-loan Real Madrid midfielder Ceballos has insisted he is happy at Arsenal and hoping for success with the Gunners.

He also said: "I signed a long contract with Madrid. I have two and a half years left. My goal is to succeed at Arsenal. My wish is to wear the Madrid shirt.

"Mikel (Arteta) is a coach that suits me like a glove because he played in the same position as me. He wants us to play forward when we steal.

"The Premier is a bit below at a tactical level (than LaLiga) and they are going harder physically. The position of 8 is the one that is working for me the best."
