Manchester United are reportedly unwilling to sell defender Phil Jones to Arsenal.

Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho does not wish to do business with opposite number Arsene Wenger due to the long-standing rivalry between the pair, according to the London Evening Standard.

Bad blood is said to remain between Mourinho and Wenger from the former's time in charge of Chelsea, with the duo involved in a war of words and even a touchline tussle in the past.

The Gunners boss has previously attempted to sign Jones, missing out on the defender when United snapped him up from Blackburn Rovers in 2011.
