Arsenal turn down chance to sign Nemanja Vidic

Arsenal have reportedly refused the opportunity to sign former Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic in the winter transfer window.

The Serbian international joined Inter Milan from the Red Devils on a free transfer over the summer, and has since then failed to cement his place in the first-team setup on a regular basis.

According to The Sun, the Gunners were offered the chance to sign the 33-year-old in January, but manager Arsene Wenger decided to look at a younger option elsewhere.

Arsenal are currently sixth in the Premier League.
