Pires rejects late Arsenal offer for Villarreal deal


Arsenal midfielder Robert Pires will complete his move to Villarreal today.
Pires, 32, has agreed a two-year £5million deal to join the Spanish La Liga outfit on July 1.
Gunners made a last-ditch bid to keep the France ace.
But they would not increase their offer of a one-year extension, except to say they would look again at the situation next summer.
