Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger claims that Barcelona “do not want to sell David Villa”.
Goal.com exclusively revealed on Monday that the two clubs have opened talks, with the Gunners’ contract negotiator Dick Law in Spain to discuss a deal, but the veteran coach says that his side have been shot down.
“Barca do not want to sell David Villa. They’ve made that very clear,” Wenger told reporters. When asked if there was any room for negotiation, he replied: “No.”
“What’s important is to buy players who can strengthen the squad. Otherwise, you do nothing. We have enough numbers, quality strikers,” the 63-year-old added.
The Arsenal boss also ruled out a short-term deal to sign David Beckham, though the former England international is training with the north Londoners.
“He called me,” Wenger explained. “It’s purely for fitness, there’s no speculation about him signing.”
