Wenger: Arsenal has no plans to sign Joe Hart

GIORGIO PEROTTINO / Reuters

Arsenal shot-stopper Petr Cech will be relieved to hear that his side isn't keen on replacing him anytime soon, with long-standing manager Arsene Wenger rubbishing talk of a potential move for Manchester City's loaned-out netminder Joe Hart.

The England No. 1 has been moved out to Torino in Serie A, with new City boss Pep Guardiola opting to bring in Claudio Bravo out of Barcelona instead. While the decision remains controversial, Wenger isn't looking to capitalise on his rival's circumstances.

"No. I have three world-class goalkeepers and I am very happy with the three I have," Wenger responded when asked if he would be interested in signing Hart, according to ESPN FC's Mattias Karen.

Arsenal currently boasts Cech, as well as former first-choice 'keeper David Ospina and backup Emiliano Martinez, among its ranks, but has a fourth potential option in Wojciech Szczesny, who is out on loan with Roma.

Hart has made 21 league appearances for Torino, conceding 29 goals.
