A report from Kieran Gill of the Daily Mail suggested that Arsenal were lining up a £15m move for Joe Hart in the summer, but Gunners boss Arsene Wenger says that there is no substance behind the claim.
Speaking at his press conference ahead of Arsenal’s game against Hull City on Saturday, Wenger said that he has no interest in signing the England international.

Hart is currently on loan at Serie A side Torino after Pep Guardiola deemed him surplus to requirements at Manchester City, mainly due to his perceived inability to play with the ball at his feet.
The report in the Mail claimed that Wenger is looking at possible replacements for 34-year-old Petr Cech and that he was considering making a move for Hart, but it appears that those claims were wide of the mark.
Arsenal will have to start considering their options in terms of goalkeepers with Cech coming to the end of his career, but time will tell in terms of who will be their next number one.
