Arsenal boss Wenger tells Liverpool: If I wanted Sahin we'd have signed him

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has no regrets missing out on Real Madrid midfielder Nuri Sahin.

The Turk is set to join Liverpool today on-loan.

Wenger said: "If we wanted to sign Sahin, we would have done it.

"Sahin is a quality player but he is not a purely defensive midfielder. We have Jack Wilshere coming back and he is a similar type of player.

"If someone top-top class turns up, completely defensive, then we will consider it."
