Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has denied reports of being in talks to replace Rino Gattuso at AC Milan.

Reports in the French press this week claimed Wenger was in advanced talks to take over from Gattuso at the Italian club, who already trail Juventus by 10 points in Serie A.

Ex-Gunners chief executive Ivan Gazidis will take up his post as Milan's new CEO in December, but Wenger insisted he will not be joining his former colleague.

"The only thing I can say is it's fake news," Wenger said on BeIN Sports. "If I had signed somewhere I would tell you. It's wrong news.

"I cannot master the rumours, I can only master what I do in my life."
