Despite press reports to the contrary, Inter Milan are not interested in signing Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno.
The German international has lost his starting spot at the Emirates to summer signing Aaron Ramsdale, and there are indications that he may be made available for sale as early as January.
Even before the arrival of Leno, the 29-year old, who is into the final two years of his current deal at the Emirates, had expressed the desire to go and experience something different.
His potential availability had alerted the attention of several clubs in Europe, with one of them supposedly Inter, who are looking for a long-term replacement for veteran Samir Handaković, who is now 38 years old.
However, it appears they are more interested in Ajax keeper Andre Onana, who is due to end the drug ban imposed on him for accidentally ingesting a banned substance in November, and who they Dutch club are then looking to sell.
