Sanchez stay rests with agent
Alexis Sanchez has admitted that his next move will be down to his agent. Sanchez is holding out for £300,000 per week and talks are still ongoing with Sanchez agent while the player is at the Confederations Cup with Chile. It seems that Arsenal are valuing the contract at £270,000 per week, just short of what Sanchez wants.
Onyekuru wants first team football
Henri Onyekuru is insisting that he has regular first team football and is not interested in sitting on the bench. Arsenal have triggered the £6.8m release clause for the joint top scorer in the Belgium League but have so far failed to agree personal terms down to the guarantee of regular first-team football.
Gnabry return?
There are reports linking us with ex-Arsenal player Serge Gnabry, who has recently triggered a clause in his contract to be able to leave German side Werder Bremen. Werder Bremen have reluctantly accepted Gnabry’s decision with the
Werder Bremen have reluctantly accepted Gnabry’s decision, with the 21-year-old deciding his next move. Gnabry was excellent last season playing 27 times and scoring 11 goals. Manager Arsene Wenger wanted to keep the young German at Arsenal but Gnabry wanted more playing time. With Wenger clearly a fan we may yet see Arsenal make a bid for the extremely talented winger.
Rodriquez next
Arsenal are preparing a bid for wantaway Real Madrid star James Rodriquez. The midfielder would be seen as a replacement for Alexis Sanchez, should he fail to sign a new contract. Arsenal would shatter their previous transfer record of £42.5m which brought Mesut Ozil to the club in 2013. At 25 years old, the Colombian is at the peak of his career and would be an excellent signing for the club.
Bellerin to stay
Hector Bellerin has tweeted to Arsenal fans telling them not to believe everything they read after he was once again linked with a move away to Barcelona. The full-back has been getting attention for the Spanish giants who were rumoured to be preparing a bid in excess of £40m to prise the youngster away. But, after his recent tweet, Arsenal fans have been delighted with the news and seems that Bellerin is staying put at least for another season.
Mbappe struggle
Kylian Mbappe transfer saga continues to drag on with other clubs now expressing an interest in the world class youngster. Arsenal have reportedly had a bid of £87m turned down and were expected to make a fresh bid, however, there has been no news on if or when that will be. Sometimes you just want the club to offer the going rate and go out and just sign a player regardless of the price. This is one of them times.
Emirates deal still on
With just two years left on the sponsorship deal for the Emirates being advertised on the club shirts, it seems Arsenal are keen on a new sponsorship with the Emirates rumoured to only be interested in the stadium name. However, the Emirates have claimed they are still interested in the club and would like to continue to do so in the future. Arsenal’s current deal of £30m falls some way short of Manchester United’s shirt deal of £53m with Chevrolet.
