Arsene Wenger will have no shortage of job offers upon leaving Arsenal, but it appears one of them will not be at PSG.

Wenger is reportedly a close friend of the Chairman at PSG, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, but speaking to 'l'Equipe' he appears to have ruled out any move for the Frenchman. 

"He is a close friend, I have a lot of admiration and respect for him and everything he has done in football," he said. 

"He's a big man. This is one of the first people I spoke to before buying the club, and he told me one thing that I never forgot: 'You buy a diamond and it will be cut and shined'.

"I do not know what he will do, but he will have a lot offers. Today, the sports director [of PSG] is Antero Henrique and he will stay."
