Wenger to take Cahill to Arsenal in £16.6million swoop

As the transfer windows edges closer to the end so does a conclusion to the Gary Cahill transfer saga. Arsenal have been linked with a move for Bolton’s strong solid leader Gary Cahill all summer, and with only one season remaining before leaving on a free it looks like wenger is about to pay up and get his man for a reported £16.6 million fee.
This deal could drag on until the final few days of the transfer window but a source inside the club has confirmed the bid is being lined up if, as reported, a third  Jagielka bid fails which looks very likely at the moment.
It is being reported that the third bid for Phil Jagielka is around £13.4 million and Everton are still demanding a fee closer to £15 million mark.
The source confirmed that Arsenal have finally made an enquiry for Gary Cahill: “Wenger does not want to spark a bidding war in the final few days of the transfer window for a player that is in his last year of he’s contract, so he is trying to keep this on a low.
“The reason Wenger did not go in for Cahill earlier was because of his age. Cahill is younger then Jagielka and he’s peak is from now and possibly for another 5 Years, whereas in Jagielka case he could possible only have another 2/3 strong seasons.”
Wenger has al ot of faith in Koscienly, Miquel and Bartley and does not want to ruin there future progression at Arsenal, Wenger believes they will become World class centre backs in the next couple of years.
The source added: “Wenger wants to gradually bring in Miquel and Bartley in the squad in the next few years, he has a lot of belief and faith in the pair and he currently sees Vermaelen and Koscienly as perfect pairing with a lot of ability and strength to push Arsenal into winning silverware.”
But now with constant injuries to our first team defence, and the inexperience, mistakes and errors made by youth, his trust in youth policy is gradually changing because it is time for Wenger to move in and secure the signing of experienced centre back who can come in straight away with a strong ability and do the job for years to come.
I am  expecting Wenger to follow up his enquiry with a bid for Cahill by the end of this week.
