No deal but Gunners eye duo

ARSENAL last night failed with a second bid to sign Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer and were warned by Sevilla that France international Sebastien Squillaci will not come cheap.

The Gunners saw an offer for Schwarzer knocked back by the Cottagers in May and have received short shrift once again in their latest approach.

It is believed that the terms offered by Arsenal were the same as those put on the table earlier in the summer, with a £2 million (€2.4m) bid believed to have been put forward.
