Morgan Schneiderlin denies Arsenal contact, but admits "clubs are interested"

Schneiderlin denies Arsenal contact

Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin's future is expected to be a talking point in the summer after the Frenchman admitted that clubs are "interested" in signing him.

The 25-year-old is believed to have considered leaving St Mary's at the end of last season, with Arsenal thought to be a potential destination, but the midfielder has insisted that he has not been in contact with Gunners manager Arsene Wenger.

"I haven't had contact with Wenger," Schneiderlin told Canal+. "Clubs are interested in me but I've not given my word to anyone."

When asked if Yohan Cabaye's struggles at Paris Saint-Germain would put him off a big move, Schneiderlin said: "No, because I want to play at the highest level, Cabaye is an excellent player who joined PSG to win titles."

Schneiderlin has been a Saints player since 2008 following his move from Strasbourg.
