Arsenal boss Unai Emery admits he's a fan of Philippe Coutinho.

But Emery has played down reports linking them with a stunning loan move for Coutinho.

"We've never talked about Coutinho," he said.

"He's a splendid player, but we haven't talked about Coutinho at any time."

Arsenal have already splashed out a club-record £72million to sign winger Nicolas Pepe from Lille this summer.
