Report: Monaco will not sell Joao Moutinho to Arsenal

Monaco have no intention of selling Portuguese midfielder Joao Moutinho to Arsenal in the January transfer window, according to reports.

Moutinho has been linked with a move away from Ligue 1 in recent weeks, and reports this weekend claimed that the Gunners could be willing to pay as much as £30m for his services.

However, Monaco are believed to be keen on keeping the 28-year-old at the club for the foreseeable future.

According toGet French Football News, a Monaco source has insisted that the club will not enter into negotiations with Arsenal.

Moutinho, whose current deal expires in 2018, scored a late equaliser as Monaco earned a 2-2 draw against Caen on Saturday night.
