Manchester United 'not interested in Mario Lemina'

Manchester United allegedly have no interest in signing Southampton midfielder Mario Lemina during the summer transfer window.

Despite two unspectacular seasons at St Mary's, Lemina has been linked with both United and Arsenal throughout this week.

Southampton are open to doing business for the right fee, while United are known to be in the market for a new player for the centre of the park.

However, according to ESPN, United are not looking to sign the Gabon international before the start of the new Premier League campaign.

Such a stance could potentially encourage Arsenal, who may be willing to meet Southampton's reported £18m valuation.

The 25-year-old made a total of 21 outings in England's top flight last season.
