London's Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger has confirmed that he is interested in Bayern Munich striker Mario Mandžukić.

The Frenchman dreams of inviting the Croatian to England as early as this month, but he understands that such opportunities are rare.

"Future Bayern player Robert Lewandowski will represent Borussia Dortmund until the end of the season, and I don't think they will dare to sell Mandžukić.

All hope is placed on next summer," said the Frenchman.

The 27-year-old Croatian has been representing the Munich club since the 2012/13 season and has scored 25 goals in over 40 appearances.
