Arsenal have rejected Besiktas' £2million bid for defender Rob Holding.
The news comes as it was previously reported that the bid was set to be rejected by Arsenal despite Holding not being in Mikel Arteta's long-term plans.
While it's unclear if Holding himself would be keen on the move, he wasn't involved in Arsenal's opening pre-season game against Nurnberg on Thursday.
He did, however, play in a behind-closed-doors game earlier this month.
But Arsenal have now rejected Besiktas' bid for the defender despite signing Jurrien Timber to strengthen their defence.
