Arsenal turn attention to Dann deal

Arsenal have decided to make an approach for Scott Dann. The Birmingham City defender has told club representatives that he wants to leave this summer, and a 10m GBP fee could be enough to secure his departure.

Dann wants to follow Roger Johnson out of St Andrews and move elsewhere; but Birmingham are holding out for a substantial fee for the player.

It is understood Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has grown frustrated in his pursuit of Bolton defender Gary Cahill, who will only be allowed to leave if an offer in the region of 15m GBP is made.
