Juventus are not interested in signing Arsenal winger Robert Pires in January, general manager Luciano Moggi said.

"We are not interested in him. But he might be interesting for a few other Italian sides anyway," Moggi was quoted as saying by SkySports.com on Sunday.

The Serie A title holders were linked with Pires in the summer and reports suggested that they reopened talks with the 33-year-old international for a move in the winter transfer window.

Juventus have signed former Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira in the off-season and Pires was said to be joining him after he was offered an only one-year extension at Highbury.

Pires failed to secure a regular starting spot with Arsenal this season and managed to score only twice in the Premiership action.
