Arsenal have failed with an attempt for Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti.
Sport says Arsenal made a move for the France international after the decision was made to sell Laurent Koscielny to Bordeaux.
Indeed, the Gunners made an offer of 58m for Umtiti this week.
However, the defender informed Barca management he wasn't interested in the move, despite losing his first-choice status last season.
Umtiti flew to the United States and Miami for Barca's promotional tour, two days before the closure of the English transfer window.
