Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that he would not consider signing Harry Kane because he plays for North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

The England international has become an established first-team player for Spurs over the past few years.

The striker, who has scored six goals so far this season, has previously been linked with a £40m move to Manchester United.

Wenger, though, has no interest in adding Kane to his team due to the fierce rivalry between the clubs.

"He has great qualities and he will make a great career, but once a player is at Spurs you don't even consider him anymore," Wenger told reporters in today's press conference.

Second-placed Arsenal are currently five points above Spurs in the Premier League table.
