Arsene Wenger rules out signing Mata and Jadson

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that the club won't be signing Juan Mata or Jadson.

Valencia's Juan Mata had been linked with a move to the Emirates for much of the summer, although the Spanish club were adamant that the 23-year-old would stay at the club.

"We will not do [a deal for] Juan Mata. I don't have to give a reason," said Wenger.

Meanwhile, Arsenal had also been linked with a move for Shakhtar Donetsk's £10m-rated playmaker Jadson but Wenger has stated that the 27-year-old is not a target.

"We are nowhere near on Jadson. We are not talking to Shakhtar about him," said the Arsenal boss.

Wenger is expected to be able to spend nearly all of the £50m from the prospective sales of Cesc Fabregas to Barcelona and Samir Nasri to Manchester City.
