In my last article regarding the possible transfer of the Cologne striker, Lukas Podolski, to
Arsenal, the comments flooded in saying there has been a pre-contract agreement between Arsenal and
Matias Suarez. Although this sounds good from a Gooner's perspective, there is no official news on
the Arsenal website and hence I implore you to [.
Lukas Podolski has been on everyone's lips for the last two transfer windows. Many wanted to see
the former Bayern Munich striker at Arsenal as backup to captain Robin Van Persie in January.
Unfortunately he decided to stay in Cologne simply to cement his position in the German national
teams for the looming Euros this [.
Yesterday there were reports in Spain that Arsenal's Flying Dutchman had a controversial interview
with Marca. He apparently said: "I am grateful to hear about the interest of a club as important as
Real Madrid." For the Gunners it is definitely disturbing that their captain, Van Persie is so
openly talking about the opportunity to [.
There is a long long way to go before the end of the season, but some papers just can't help
creating the occasional Arsenal transfer rumour anyway. Today the Metro reports that the Ajax
defender Jan Vertonghen is being lined up by both Arsenal and Tottenham with a view to a £10m bid
this summer, [.
It is being reported this morning that the Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge has been pinpointed by
Arsenal as the perfect replacement for Robin Van Persie if he is sold to Barcelona this summer.
There have been rumblings for some time that Sturridge is not happy being left out on the wing at
Stamford Bridge, despite [.
It is being reported this morning that Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspurs are both scouting the England
U19 star Jamaal Lascelles, who made his first senior appearance for Nottingham Forest last weekend
against Burnley, watched by both Arsenal and Spurs scouts who were alerted beforehand. It was
reported that Arsenal made a £5million offer for the [.
Robin Van Persie is not the only Arsenal striker that is approaching the last year of their
contract at the Emirates, but for some reason Arsenal fans haven't been so bothered about whether
Theo Walcott extends or not! This is obviously due to his inconsistent performances, but after
yesterdays game perhaps the fans may be [.
The Arsenal midfielder Andrei Arshavin was visibly shaken by the reaction of the home fans at the
Emirates last week when he took to the field in place of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and considering
that he was lacking in confidence before that he can't be very keen to wear the Arsenal colours
again. A few weeks [.
Arsenal's defence has taken a pounding over the last few weeks with the numerous injuries to the
back line, and Arsene Wenger has maintained that there is no truth in any of the Arsenal transfer
rumours and he will not be making any purchases in the next few days, maybe! He was typically
cryptic last [.
It is being reported this morning that Arsene Wenger made an £8m bid to sign the Koln striker
Lukas Podolski this month, but the Bundesliga side turned Arsenal away despite the striker only
having 18 months left on his contract. Wenger desperately needs a classy back-up striker to cover
for Robin Van Persie and has [.
All Arsenal fans know that Arsene Wenger is in need of a top class striker to act as cover for
Robin Van Persie (or even as a replacement if the Dutchman leaves at the end of the season). So
with that in mind, the Metro reports this morning that Arsenal are interested in signing the [...]
It has been reported this morning that the German newspaper Bild has revealed that Arsenal have
been making enquiries about the Paraguayan international striker Lucas Barrios, who is currently
playing at the Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund. The 27 year-old has excellent goalscoring stats
in the last few years, having netted 49 goals in just 53 [.
Most Arsenal fans are resigned to the fact that Arsene will not be buying any more players in
January, despite the massive injury list at the Emirates, but that doesn't stop the Arsenal
transfer rumours popping up all over the place. The one I like the best is the rumour that Wenger
has been sending [.
Despite Arsene Wenger making it clear that he doesn't like the January transfer window, there are
still lots of Arsenal transfer rumours out there in the ether, but whether any of them are true is
another matter. One player who won't be coming to Arsenal is the "German Jack Wilshere", Mario
Gotze, who has somehow [.
There are reports this morning that Arsenal are one of a few teams (including Manchester United)
that are watching the Italian U21 striker Insigne Lorenzo, who has been impressing watchers while
on loan from the Serie A giants Napoli. Lorenzo scored 19 goals in just 31 games at Foggia last
season, and has already scored [.
There is a very interesting Arsenal transfer rumour in today's Mail saying that Arsene Wenger has
got his scouts monitoring the very young Panathiniakos keeper Stefanos Kapino, who made made
history in November by setting a record for the youngest ever player to represent Greece at senior
level in a friendly match (against Romania).
It is being reported in France that the Arsenal outcast defender Sebastien Squillaci is being given
an escape route by Monaco, where he spent eight happy years before being snapped up by Lyon, where
he won a Ligue 1 trophy. He then moved to Spain with Sevilla for two years before arriving in
London with [.
There is an Arsenal transfer rumour that has appeared on Sky today saying that Arsene Wenger is
considering making a bid for their centre-back Scott Dann, and it says that Blackburn are willing
to listen to big money offers for the ex-Birmingham defender. A quote from Sky's article says:
Arsenal are also thought to be [.
The French international midfielder Aly Cissokho has made it clear that he wants to get away from
Lyon as soon as possible, and he announced just last week that he was keen on moving to the Premier
League this January. He said: "This week, I will speak with the Lyon staff. I reckon I prefer [...]
There are an avalanche of Arsenal transfer rumours around saying that the Gunners have already
signed a pre-contract with the Belgian giants Anderlecht to ensure that their pursuit of the
Argentinian striker Matias Suarez cannot be hijacked before the summer transfer window. A respected
Argentinian football journalist Javier Perez has announced via his twitter account [.
There have been numerous rumours saying that Andrei Arshavin is now considered surplus to
requirements at Arsenal, and the Russian captain has also made it plain that he is worried about
losing his place in the national team if he doesn't play regularly for the Gunners. The Zenit
technical director Igor Korneev admitted last month [.
It has been revealed this morning that the Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will once again have his
scouts at the Reebok Stadium tonight to watch their young Southampton left-back Luke Shaw in action
in the Youth Cup against Bolton. Shaw is not legally allowed to sign professional terms with anyone
until July when he reaches [.
It seems that the recent Arsenal transfer news linking the Gunners with a move for the 26 year-old
Chelsea striker/winger Salomon Kalou were completely accurate. According to many sources this
morning, but originally in the Daily Mail i believe, the Ivorian international has been given
special permission to return to London by his national team [.
There are certainly a good selection of Arsenal transfer rumours around this morning, but I'm not
sure how many of them are even close to being likely! There is no doubt that Arsenal need a proper
backup striker for Robin Van Persie, especially with the possibility that the Dutchman could be
leaving next summer.

Arsene Wenger has constantly admitted that he just needed a "short-term" solution to Arsenal's
defensive injury problems, and he has now made it clear that he will be taking someone on until the
end of the season. Wenger said: "I do not want to go for a permanent solution because we have to
pay all [.
Arsene Wenger has made it clear that a temporary signing of a left-back is an immediate priority
for Arsenal before the Gunners play their next League game against Swansea, and it seems that he
could be close to signing one, according to the Metro this evening. There are three top-class
left-backs on the market right [.
It is being reported this morning that Arsene Wenger is still interested in buying the Japanese
star Keisuke Honda from the Russian giants CSKA Moscow. The Russians have continually refused to
let Honda break his contract up 'til now, but he now only has one year left and it is time for CSKA
to cash [.
Arsene Wenger has admitted that he desperately needs a short-term loan of a left-back to get the
club through January, but in one of the weirdest Arsenal transfer rumours ever it seems he has
offered a trial to the Oman international Saad al-Mukhaini. The 24 year-old currently plies his
trade in the Omani second division [.
There are quite a few Arsenal transfer rumours around this morning, but none of them seem to be
very good news for the Gunners. To start with, Mario Gotze, who is said to be many people's idea of
the perfect replacement for Cesc Fabregas, has apparently agreed to stay with Borussia Dortmund
next season.
I have woken up this morning all ready to give you a thorough breakdown of all the latest Arsenal
transfer rumours, but the first one I looked at was so laughable that I just had to write an
article on it! In an "Exclusive" in the Daily Mirror, a "reporter" by the name of James [...]
There have been numerous Arsenal transfer rumours linking the Gunners with many established stars,
but there is a more believable "Exclusive" in the Mirror that says that Arsenal (and Chelsea I
might add) are going to make an offer for a young English player called Nick Powell. The 17
year-old attacking midfielder is an England [.
Arsene Wenger has suffered from one of his usual mid-season defensive crises which has been
compounded by the injury to Thomas Vermaelen in Arsenal's 1-0 win over QPR on Saturday. He has
nowmade it clear that he is looking for a left-back on loan, and today the Mail reports that his
number One target is [.
Everybody knows that Robin van Persie has refused to talk about his new contract at Arsenal until
the end of the season, but there has been little mention of the same situation developing with Theo
Walcott. Both of them will have just 12 months left on their contract in June, but it seems that
negotiations [.
Reports have emerged this morning claiming that the German international striker Lukas Podolski is
keen on quitting Bundesliga side FC Cologne to join Arsenal. The reports coming out of Germany
further claim that the former Bayern Munich hitman has fallen out with Cologne's director of Sport,
Volker Finke, according to the Mirror.
There are loads of snippets of Arsenal transfer news about this morning, but most of them seem to
be total speculation without any quotes whatsoever, but it is my duty to pass them on to interested
Arsenal fans. The first one has Arsenal and just about every other top Premier League club
interested in signing [.
Thierry Henry is now back in London and was in the stands watching Arsenal's draw against Wolves on
Tuesday, and it seems that he is seriously considering rejoining Arsenal for the next two months to
cover for Marouane Chamakh and Gervinho. The Telegraph this morning reports that fruitful talks
have been held between Henry and [.
There have been numerous reports lately linking Arsenal with the prolific young Swede John
Guidetti, who is currently on loan at Feyenoord in Holland from Manchester City. The 19 year-old
has burst upon the scene in the Eredvisie lately with 11 goals (in just 12 games), including a
match-winning hat-trick against title contenders FC Twente [.
The little Russian maestro Andrei Arshavin has not looked very happy playing for Arsenal every time
he has appeared on the pitch this season, even though Arsene Wenger has given him numerous chances
to make an impact off the bench, and according to the Metro he has dropped behind Yossi Benayoun
and Thomas Rosicky in [.
"I'd prefer to play in Spain than in the Premier League," Gotze told Frankfurter Allgemeine
Zeitung. "Spanish football is better suited to my qualities." "Every footballer's dream is to play
in Spain. There are many great teams there like Real Madrid or Barcelona." However, the Germany
international also insisted that he is not eager to [.
