Arsenal refuse Chelsea’s advances for Smith Rowe

Arsenal has rejected Chelsea’s interest in their midfielder Emile Smith-Rowe, according to a report by the ‘Daily Mail.’ The Gunners quickly dismissed the idea of a move from their London rivals.

Mikel Arteta’s team has already turned down Chelsea’s initial approach for the 23-year-old player. Despite not having played this season due to his recovery from injury, Smith-Rowe is considered a key player at the Emirates and is not available for negotiation.

Although the chances of the deal happening are currently slim, Mauricio Pochettino’s side might be open to including some players from their squad to make the deal more appealing.
