Gunners target Morgan Schneiderlin admits Southampton ‘blocked’ his summer transfer
After seeing Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana, Luke Shaw, Dejan Lovren, Calum Chambers and boss Mauricio Pochettino leave St Mary’s the midfielder was also keen on an exit.
Both Wenger and his great rivals Tottenham Hotspur were interested in signing Schneiderlin, but the 24-year-old has revealed that the Saints blocked his move away.
“There were offers on the table but Southampton made a clear choice, which was to keep me after the departure of certain players. I was ‘blocked’ but I must accept that,” the France international was quoted by the Mirror.
