There are lots of interesting bits of Arsenal transfer news around today, but the most unlikely
just has to be the report from Marca that Barcelona want either Mascherano or Denilson to replace
Yaya Toure at the Camp Nou. Mascherano I can understand, but Denilson is nowhere near the finished
product yet and would certainly [.
The dreaded Arsenal curse has struck Nicklas Bendtner, and the latest news from Denmark says that
he will be out until next year at the earliest. The reported problem is a groin strain, but it is
strange that the original injury arrived just after he started living with his sexy (and extremely
rich) girlfriend Baroness [.
Ther is lots of Arsenal transfer news about today, and the one that has shocked Arsenal fans the
most (from looking at the blogs) is the news that Sol Cambell has been signed on a temporary
contract until the end of the season. I have seen various figures relating to his paypacket, but it
seems [...]
At last the Arsenal transfer news today seems to be actually concentrating on the sort of players
that Wenger needs, and is likely to buy, instead of the usual wishlist. A first mention today of
the 6ft 1in Polish/French centre-back Laurent Koscielny. He's 24 years old and plays for L'Orient
in Ligue 1, who had a [.
As just about the whole Barcelona team has said at least once (if not three times!) that the
Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas should be at the Camp Nou next season, it has come as a shock to me
that ONE of them has admitted that Cesc plays for Arsenal, and there is "nothing to be [...]
Well at least we all now know why the young Norwegian centre-back Havard Nordtveit hasn't been
given his chance to play in the Arsenal first team, even though the Gunners have been having a
defensive crisis this season. He has refused to sign a new contract after returning from his loan
at Nurnberg this summer, and [.
The most interesting bit of Arsenal transfer news to come out of today's papers is the report in
the Sunday People that the Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez has been in talks with Arsene Wenger
for the last few days about a possible switch for Ryan Babel. They say that Babel has turned down
offers from both [.
Now that the World Cup is approaching the final few games, the mind games from Barcelona have
started all over again. Fabregas said the other day that he still loved Arsenal, and may still
remain at Arsenal next season, but according to his Spain international team-mate Gerard Pique,
Fabregas is saying quite the opposite in [.
Even though Arsene Wenger has totally refused to countenance any discussion of the Arsenal captain
Cesc Fabregas moving to Barcelona, it hasn't stopped his international team-mates spouting their
mouths off to the press. Today it is the turn of the Barcelona captain Carlos Puyol, who reckons
that Cesc "and his family" are "desperate" to move back [.
The Russian international goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev thinks he is ready for a move to the
Premiership, and after talking to his mate Andrei Arshavin, he is especially keen on moving to
Arsenal and London, with Man Utd being his second choice. The CSKA Moscow star believes that if a
good offer came in for him the [.
It was reported last week that Thierry Henry had decided to move to the New York Red Bulls in the
American MLS after the World Cup, but now West Ham have stepped in to try and bring the Arsenal
legend back to London. The West Ham co-chairman David Sullivan has reportedly offer Henry two-year
deal worth [.
As usual during the transfer window, Arsenal are linked to many many top stars, but as usual we
find that a schoolboy or two are practically certain to arrive. Today it has been announced that
Arsenal have completed the signing of Phillip Roberts, a 16 year-old Republic of Ireland striker.
He was actually born in England [.
The biggest Arsenal transfer rumour today was that Arsene Wenger was in touch with Sevilla to
persuade them to part with the French international centre-back, Sebastien Squillaci. Well today
Sevilla have confirmed the rumours, and also agreed that Squillaci missed the Champions League
Qualifier just in case the deal went through.
The normally tight-lipped Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has yet again been giving his opinions of
the latest Arsenal rumours, and he has destroyed my two favourite rumours, namely Carlton Cole and
Victor Moses. Carlton Cole is a top class Englishman that could play in the Champions League, and
the young Palace striker Victor Moses has the [.
With Arsene Wenger revealing that injuries are taking their toll on his team, the papers are full
of Arsenal transfer news this morning. I have already covered the Phillipe Senderos to Celtic story
earlier, but there is another couple of bits of gossip around. The newest name to be bandied around
is the young Fulham defender [.
With no game until Wednesday, the papers are trying their arm with a few titbits of Arsenal
transfer news. There seems to be a lot of rumours concerning goalkeepers lately, there was Manuel
Neuer and Fernando Muslera last week and Sebastian Frey yesterday. Is Arsene Wenger really going to
finally buy a classy keeper?
Arsene Wenger admitted that "something had to change" after Arsenal's 4-1 defeat in Barcelona, but
who are the players that you think should be replaced this summer. One absolutely certain to top
the list is Mikael Silvestre. As soon as Thomas Vermaelen went off injured against Tottenham to be
replaced by Silvestre, it became nigh on [.
With this season soon coming to a close, Marouane Chamakh is surely the name which will dominate
the headlines in terms of Arsenal transfer news. The 26-year old has never been closer to the
Gunners after ...
The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has again risked the wrath of the fans by indicating that he will
not be buying wholesale this summer. He said last week that he will be buying two (maybe three)
players, and we all know Chamakh is one of them. He again said today that Arsenal will be stronger
next [.
Despite Arsene Wenger saying that there will be minimal signings this summer, the papers are still
full of Arsenal transfer news today, and there are a couple of new names to add to the list. The
first one is the classy Sampdoria striker Giampaolo Pazzini, who the Mail says that Wenger would
love to partner Marouane [.
Since the Barcelona president Joan Laporta admitted that Thierry Henry will be allowed to leave the
Spanish giants this summer, despite still having a year left on his contract, there has been much
speculation about where the Arsenal legend will end up after the World Cup. "He still has a
one-year contract with us, but after [.
I recently asked the Just Arsenal fans whether Wenger should buy Eden Hazard or Felipe Melo, and it
seems that everyone agrees that Felipe Melo is the player most needed at Arsenal (i.e. A strong
tackling hardman midfielder), but Hazard has the skill to be as good as Lionel Messi in the future.
The rumours are [.
There is a good bit of Arsenal transfer news about today, and it is not all good news. It appears
that Arsene Wenger has upset William Gallas with his not-generous-enough new contract offer, and
the Frenchman has decided to go off in a huff. The Sun reports today that Wenger is wasting his
time going [.
Wow. I am in shock after reading the latest quote from Cesc Fabregas. I totally ignored the rumours
this morning that said the Arsenal captain had told his friends and family that he would be at
Barcelona next season. "The usual rubbish" I thought. But now, Fabregas himself has blown that out
of the water, by [.
There is lots of Arsenal transfer news in the papers today, and first off is the report in the News
of The World that says that Cesc Fabregas has spoken again to Arsene Wenger, and told him that he
has made his mind up to leave no matter what, thereby forcing the French coach to [...]
The best bit of Arsenal transfer news for ages is from today's Star, who are adamant that Arsene
Wenger has already arranged for Chelsea's Joe Cole to sign for the Gunners on a free transfer.
Wenger has said previously that Cole is a very interesting target, but has he really caved in and
agreed to [.
Crazy as it may seem, the latest Arsenal transfer news is saying the Joe Cole has agreed a
three-year deal with Arsenal, and it will be formalised in the next week or two, which means he
will be an Arsenal player when he starts the World Cup campaign with England. The London Metro has
just headlined [.

The Arsenal defender Sol Campbell has obviously still not heard anything from Arsene Wenger about
him winning a new one-year contract for nex season, as he is still considering a move to Celtic for
the new season. The 36 year-old seems keen on moving north of the border, but first he wants to
know if Neil [.
Just a few days ago, Arsenal clearly stated on their official website that they were not going to
listen to any offers from Barcelona for Cesc Fabregas, but the Spanish giants seem to think that
this was just a ploy in the negotiating process. Barcelona president Joan Laporta, who has been in
charge of negotiations since [.
Most of todays Arsenal transfer news seems to be pretty speculative, as they are taking Arsene
Wenger's quotes on players appearing at the World Cup and turning them into transfer rumours. The
first one, regarding Everton's Steven Pienaar, does have a bit of interest as he is in the last
year of his contract, and has [.
The Arsenal defender Sol Campbell, who has just been released from his contract at Highbury, has
made a statement saying how "excited" he is with Neil Lennon's plans to make Celtic a force to be
reckoned with again. Lennon wants Celtic to not just dominate Scotland, but start winning more
games in the Champions League as [.
Sol Cambell has been up to Glasgow again to have a chat with Neil Lennon and look at the
facilities, but has refused to commit himself to either Celtic or Arsenal until after his wedding.
He has already said that he wants to talk to Arsene Wenger before making a decision, and the
Frenchman won't return [.
Now that the World Cup is over, the new Barcelona president Sandro Rosell flew to South Africa with
every intention of quickly striking a deal with Arsene Wenger, but according to an exclusive report
in todays Mirror, Wenger refused to even meet up with him! So it looks like Wenger is sticking to
his guns and [.
I revealed last week that the Arsenal legend Thierry Henry had left Barcelona and is due to be
unveiled by the New York Red Bulls on Thursday, and has now been officially announced , and his
first match will be against the dreaded Spuds in a "friendly" game on the 22nd July! Henry is over
the [...]
Arsene Wenger has clarified that he is definitely not going to be replacing Eduardo now that he has
left for Shakhtar Donetsk, but he has kept the Arsenal fans guessing by saying that he still
intends to make a "defensive signing", yet again not specifying if it would be a goalkeeper or a
defender! When talking [.
Arsene Wenger is adamant that he intends to make his captain Cesc Fabregas stick to the terms of
his contract at Arsenal, which still has five or six years left on it. He said: "I always said Cesc
Fabregas will be our captain next year and that we want to keep him. "Despite all the speculation
last [.
It has been rumoured that Arsenal have been close to signing Mark Schwarzer since the second the
transfer window opened, and it has been relentless ever since. The thing is; there has not been one
shred of evidence to support it, even though it was once said that he had even been to the Emirates
[...
Once again, someone from The Sun has made up a story to fill in space, and everyone has fallen for
it hook line and sinker. The Sun headlined this morning with this stocking filler: SCHWARZER: LET
ME JOIN ARSENAL MARK SCHWARZER has stunned new Fulham boss Mark Hughes by slapping in a transfer
request.
Arsene Wenger had a long press conference today and, although looking quite tired and drawn, he
managed to field all the searching questions quite well. He was obviously asked about the rumours
surrounding his interest in Sebastien Squillaci, and said that although Arsenal were interested,
they were nowhere near securing his signature.
