Arsenal have been dealt a blow in their reported pursuit of AC Milan forward Rafael Leao, who has previously been likened to former Gunners player Thierry Henry.
The 22-year-old can play in a number of positions, from left-wing to striker and represented a potential option for Mikel Arteta to strengthen in his forward lines.
The Spaniard is set to lose both Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah at the end of the season as free agents, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leaving for Barcelona in January.
