AC Milan are set to scupper Arsenal's attempt to sign Real Madrid star Isco.
That is according to Spanish outlet AS, who says the Serie A side want to take the midfielder to the San Siro as they plan a £300million overhaul of their squad.
The 22-year-old Spanish international will reportedly cost the Italian giants £37million.
Arsenal have been linked with a move for the player as they bid to strengthen their midfield ahead of attempting to end their title drought in the coming season.
Wenger admits Gunners are 'very short' in defence. Wenger spoke about Arsenal's defensive problems Arsene Wenger admits Arsenal will head into the Premier League season short of centre backs after Gabriel was forced out of their final pre-season game with what looked like a serious injury, writes Mirror Football's Frank Smith. The Gunners are already going to be without experienced campaigner Per Mertesacker until 2017 and Gabriel also looks set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering ankle ligament damage in their 3-2 win over Manchester City this evening. And after the victory in Gothenburg, Wenger confirmed Laurent Koscielny will not be available to face Liverpool in their Premier League opener on Sunday after being given extra time off following his involvement with France at Euro 2016. That means the Gunners may have to start the campaign with youngsters Calum Chambers and new signing Rob Holding, who was relegated from the Championship last season with Bolton, as their centre back pairing against the Reds. "We are very short [in defence],” Wenger acknowledged. “Laurent's back in training but Liverpool may come a bit soon. We're short in defence at the moment''
