Arsene Wenger: 'Arsenal are not interested in Dimitar Berbatov'

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has insisted that the club have not made a move for Fulham striker Dimitar Berbatov.

Reports on Thursday suggested that the Gunners were considering a bid for the 32-year-old after Nicklas Bendtner picked up an injury in the 2-0 victory over Cardiff City on New Year's Day.

"He is not a name we have considered at the moment. We have not contacted anybody," Sky Sports News quotes Wenger as saying.

"We are just considering our options. I must confess they are quite restricted."

Berbatov joined Fulham from Manchester United in the summer of 2012.
