Arsenal are closing in on the signing of Dynamo Moscow striker Aleksandr Kokorin, according to reports.

Benzema tweeted this week that he will not be leaving Real, dismissing media reports by writing: "For all those clowns who want to make believe things at my fans. Here this is my home ! #HalaMadridYNadaMas"
