On the contrary, Arteta admired the Swedish star days ago, giving hints that he might be interested in keeping the 27-year-old at Emirates.
Xhaka signed for Arsenal in 2016 but his recent angry reaction to fan abuse has put his future at the club under doubt.

The Arsenal fans lashed out at Xhaka on social media some even demanding him to be sacked from the team.
In a recent interview with a Swiss newspaper Blick, Xhaka described what he felt of the incident which happened during the Crystal Palace encounter.
The former Arsenal star, who is currently in charge of Nice in Ligue 1, stated that the Swiss superstar deserves respect and explained how former footballers have blamed Xhaka for the entire situation.
Arsenal would be happy to listen to all the offers being made from other clubs concerning Xhaka but it remains to be seen if they sell their star player to a fellow Premier League side.
Xhaka's involvement in an angry confrontation with the fans during Arsenal's 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace, meant he could not be the captain anymore.
Despite the World Cup being on, Xhaka found time to agree to a extension with the Gunners.
