Southampton midfielder Victor Wanyama has rubbished newspaper reports quoting him as saying that Arsenal want to sign him.

In a story published by The Sun, the 23-year-old allegedly claimed that Gunners manager Arsene Wenger is interested in signing him this summer.

However, Wanyama has hit out at the reports by insisting that he has not had a conversation with Wenger and that he would "never" openly discuss transfer business.

The Kenyan midfielder tweeted: "I have to make it clear that I have not said what as been brought up today am professional and will never say that. To cut the story short have never spoken to Wenger."

Wanyama joined Southampton in 2013 from Celtic.
