Sergei Rebrov has issued a ‘hands-off’ warning to Arsenal after reports linked them with a move for the Dynamo Kiev centre-back Aleksandar Dragovic.
Arsene Wenger managed to strengthen his defensive line over January, acquiring Gabriel from Villarreal.
However, Wenger is reportedly still keen to add another centre-back to the mix at the end of the season with Per Mertesacker in the spotlight for some poor performances as of late.
A number of defender’s have been linked with a move to the Emirates this summer, and Dragovic appears to be one of them, with Wenger keen on the 24-year-old Austrian.
But Rebrov wants to keep Dragovic at Kiev:
‘You are asking about one of the best players in my team and I don’t want to lose this player.
‘He is a top-class player and I hope he will stay with us.’
Dragovic, who is valued at around £10 million, still has three-and-a-half years left to run on his current deal at Kiev. But despite his importance, the Ukrainian club may be tempted to sell if an offer too good to turn down is tabled this summer.
