Italian media: "Arsenal" lost the battle for K. Manolo

London's "Arsenal" will not succeed in acquiring the desired "Roma" center-back Kostas Manolas, reported the Milan-based TV channel "Telelombardia." The Greek national team member should be lured by Milan's "Inter" club for nearly 37 million pounds sterling. "Arsenal" coach Arsene Wenger has been watching the 25-year-old player for a long time and tried to sign him during the summer. Back then, the offer for him was rejected, and Shkodran Mustafi arrived in London. However, the German has not lived up to the expectations placed on him, so "Arsenal" has to continue looking for reinforcements. But Manolas showed no interest in either this club or the offers from London's "Chelsea." "Roma" is also prepared to say goodbye to their main defensive pillar, as he is not willing to extend his contract, which is valid until 2019.
