Arsenal have failed with an attempt for Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti.
Sport says Arsenal made a move for the France international after the decision was made to sell Laurent Koscielny to Bordeaux.
Indeed, the Gunners made an offer of €58m for Umtiti this week.
However, the defender informed Barca management he wasn't interested in the move, despite losing his first-choice status last season.
Umtiti flew to the United States and Miami for Barca's promotional tour, two days before the closure of the English transfer window.

The club have described the problem as tightness in the muscle, rather than a pull or a tear, which indicates the Ghanaian international won’t be out of contention for too long. Oleksandr Zinchenko also missed the game on Saturday and it’s unlikely that he’ll be spending much time on the treatment table either. The Ukrainian international has a minor sprain in his left knee and he was left out for the Fulham match as a precaution.
