Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin remains on the shopping list of Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.
The Sunday Mirror says Wenger is not a fan of the New Year window, but he is a big admirer of Southampton's defensive midfielder.
The France star has been a long-time target of Tottenham and their manager, former Saints boss Mauricio Pochettino.
But now Wenger is ready to pounce for the 24-year-old, who is rated at around £25million.
If Southampton waiver in their determination to keep Schneiderlin, he would jump at the chance of Champions League football.
