Sandro Tonali has responded to reports that Arsenal are interested in signing him after it was claimed the Gunners had met with AC Milan.

Earlier this week, it was claimed that Arsenal had spoken with AC Milan about the possibility of signing midfielder, Sandro Tonali.

As I said at the time, it seemed highly unlikely any deal would proceed, mostly due to Tonali’s importance to the Italians, but also given how few players have moved successfully from Italy to Arsenal over recent years.

Not only did Tonali say he is happy to stay with AC Milan, adding he ‘joined AC Milan at the right moment,’ it seems he has a new tattoo that he believes will impress their supporters.

Certainly not the actions of a man who wants to do anything other than remain where he is.

Speaking to Sette Magazine, Tonali said: “I want to show them my new tattoo.

“The word ‘impossible’, but with a red line cancelling the letters I and M.

“Nothing is impossible, this is my message.”

Except, perhaps, Arsenal being able to sign the boyhood AC Milan fan.
