Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin would prefer a move to Arsenal over Manchester United.
The Daily Star Sunday says the Frenchman has told friends: I want to join Arsenal.
United boss Louis van Gaal sees him as the man to add power and poise to his midfield as they prepare for life in the Champions League.
Schneiderlin is desperate to play in Europe's top club competition and has asked the Saints to sell him.
But he'd rather join Arsenal than United.
