Arsene Wenger refuses to draw on Karim Benzema, Angel di Maria reports

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger refuses to be drawn on speculation linking the club with moves for Real Madrid pair Karim Benzema and Angel di Maria.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has distanced himself from reports linking the club with a double swoop for Real Madrid pair Karim Benzema and Angel di Maria.

It has been claimed that the Gunners are willing to pay £40m for the forward's services, while also considering a move for his teammate Di Maria in a bid to strengthen the team before the transfer deadline.

When probed on the reports during a press conference, Wenger said: "I don't want to speak about names, [the media] do that very well."

Wenger recently admitted that the club are no longer pursuing Liverpool striker Luis Suarez, who is now believed to be a target for Madrid.
