Arsenal had considered a summer transfer for Barcelona's Samuel Umtiti but his wage demands are making the deal unlikely
Arsenal hopes of Samuel Umtiti transfer scuppered - even on loan
Arsenal are ready to end their pursuit of Barcelona's Samuel Umtiti after learning of his wage demands.
The Frenchman is linked with the Nou Camp exit door having failed to nail down a starting spot since returning from injury.
The Gunners were not the only club eyeing Umtiti though with Inter Milan and Napoli both interested.
Umtiti is seen by the latter as a replacement for Kalidou Koulibaly who could be on the move this summer.

The unnamed 32-year-old revealed all in a shocking post on Reddit, which has since been deleted, reports mamamia.com.au.
She explained how she was introduced to Dave five years ago through a work colleague called Mark.
She claims she wasn't all that interested in Dave at first, but he was incredibly persistent, so she agreed to go on a date with him and was surprised that they had quite a lot in common.
"Although he definitely liked me a lot more than I liked him in the beginning, our relationship slowly began to grow, and eventually I fell in love with him," she said.

thedailymirror--2020-04-28--Tesco made seven weeks of sales in just one or two days when coronavirus struck

Tesco boss Dave Lewis has laid out exactly how our shopping habits have changed since the coronavirus pandemic struck the UK .
The supermarket 's chief executive explained that his store has seen a return to shopping patterns last seen ten or 15 years ago , after the initial wave of panic buying subsided .
But not quite everything is back the way it was , he explained in an interview with the BBC , with shortages of home baking ingredients like flour and yeast still with us .
`` People are shopping once a week , a little like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , rather than two , three or four times a week that was happening before the crisis , '' Lewis said .

As a player in Spain, Italy and with Argentina he was adored by home fans and hated by rivals - as a manager he has become an icon across Europe for his work with Atletico Madrid
Diego Simeone, the Argentine who infamously got David Beckham sent off and now the highest paid coach in the world, turns 50 today.
The passionate former midfielder has enjoyed a remarkable career as a player in Argentina, Italy and Spain.
And now he is firmly in place as the leader of Atletico Madrid, having led Los Rojiblancos to arguably the greatest period in their history.
Here Mirror Sport looks at the career highlights of El Cholo...

Atletico Madrid as a player
Simeone started at Velez Sarsfield but made his name in Europe.
In his first spell in the Spanish capital, the energetic midfielder helped Atletico win the La Liga – Copa del Rey double in 1995-96.
He returned for two more seasons from 2003-05.
Italy
He won the UEFA Cup playing alongside Ronaldo for Inter Milan in 1997-98.
In 1999, Simeone joined fellow Argentines Juan Sebastien Veron and Hernan Crespo at Sven Goran Eriksson's big-spending Lazio.
They won the scudetto and the Coppa Italia in his first season, before he scored against his former club Inter Milan on the final day of the 2001-02 season to deny them the title.

France 1998
The Argentine gained notoriety along with Beckham when he collapsed to the floor after a petulant kick by the then Manchester United star in St Etienne in a last 16 clash.
Beckham saw red and England were knocked out on penalties.
Simeone won the last of his 106 caps at the 2002 World Cup when Beckham's penalty knocked out Argentina in the group stages.

Leading Atletico as coach
Simeone's management style is like how he played: gritty and organised with a compact defence looking to hit opponents on the break.
He arrived with Atleti struggling in mid-table, but won the Europa League in his first season at the Vicente Calderon, before a hat-trick from Radamel Falcao beat Chelsea in the UEFA Super Cup final in August 2012.
The following year, Atleti won the Copa del Rey, beating rivals Real Madrid in their own Bernabeu stadium.
He duly led Atletico to their first title since he was a player (back in '96) in 2014 - claiming it with a final day draw at Barcelona.

A team including Diego Costa and Diego Godin also reached the Champions League final for the first time since 1974 - and were winning 1-0 in injury time, only to concede an equaliser to Sergio Ramos before losing to Real Madrid in extra time.
His Los Colchoneros lost on penalties to their city rivals again in 2016 but won the Europa League in 2018, proving too good for Marseille in Lyon.
This season Simeone masterminded a knockout win over Liverpool at Anfield to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League, continuing his record of never losing a UCL knockout tie to any side not containing Cristiano Ronaldo.

The best paid coach
Simeone is the best paid coach in the world ahead of Antonio Conte and Pep Guardiola.
A recent France Football survey listing the highest earning coaches in the world has the Argentine clearly top of the table on an annual salary of £36.2m after signing a huge new three-year contract in February 2019.
The longest-serving coach in La Liga has also banked £450,000 from his property portfolio and his stake in a Range Rover franchise.
It has stopped any chance of taking the job at Inter Milan or a move to the Premier League.
Why is he nicknamed 'El Cholo'?
Many Argentine players ancd coaches have a nickname with Lionel Messi known as El Pulga and Rene Higuita – and now Marcelo Bielsa – dubbed El Loco.
So why El Cholo for Simeone?
He once explained: “There was a player called [Carmelo] Simeone during the 70s, and they called him Cholo. He was a right-back who played for Boca – I think he also played a game or two for the Argentina national team.
"And around 1985, a coach who was called Victorio Spinetto, who was a great Argentine player – a veteran coach with us when I was in the youth team. One day he called me Cholo and it stuck.
"What does Cholo mean? I’ve got no idea!"

“But there are also many other areas, and right now the first thing is people’s health."
