the biggest transfer talk involving
Arsenal as doubt continues to cloud the futures of the
likes of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez
WENGER WARNED OVER
TRANSFERS
Arsene Wenger will be warned to stop "dithering" over
transfers by Arsenal's board today ahead of expected
confirmation of his contract extension at the club, according
to the Daily Mail .
Missing out on Gonzalo Higuain in 2013 will be highlighted
as an example when the Arsenal manager failed to act
decisively on transfers.
Malaga pair Sandro Ramirez and Pablo Fornals are
reportedly two of the Gunners' targets this summer,
plus Wenger must deal with Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez
having just 12 months left on their lucrative contracts.
ARSENAL PUSH FOR ALEXIS &
OZIL
Arsenal will make a final push to keep Alexis Sanchez and
Mesut Ozil, The Mirror reports .
The Gunners hope the FA Cup triumph and improved salaries
will convince the star duo to say, with the club prepared to
offer them wages totalling more than £30 million
combined.
WENGER PROMISED £100M
Arsene Wenger will be handed at least £100 million to
spend in the summer transfer window if he signs a new
contract at Arsenal, reports the Daily Star .
The Frenchman is yet to reveal what his future holds, but
is expected to stay on and push for new recruits after
missing out on Champions League qualification this season.
WENGER TO SIGN FOR TWO
YEARS
Arsene Wenger will put pen to paper on a new two-year
deal with Arsenal, The Times reports.
It is said that the club's board are meeting on Monday to
finalise the contract offer and Wenger's extension should be
announced before the end of the week.
ARSENAL LEADING BELOTTI
PACK
Arsenal are interested in signing Andrea Belotti from
Torino, according to The Sun , but will face competition
from Chelsea and Manchester United.
The report claims the Gunners have registered the most
interest in the 23-year-old goal machine, but with Man
Utd and Chelsea also both hopeful of landing Romelu
Lukaku, Arsenal could face a last-ditch battle for Belotti
with whoever misses out on the Belgian.
ARSENAL MAKE HUGE ALEXIS
OFFER
Arsenal have offered Alexis Sanchez a new contract worth
£270,000 a week amid interest from Bayern Munich,
according to the Daily Mail .
The proposal is still short of the £300,000 package Alexis
wants but is said to feature incentives which are likely to
bring his weekly earnings close to that total.
ARSENAL EYE HAZARD
Arsenal are eyeing a move for Borussia Monchengladbach
winger Thorgan Hazard, according to Jeunes Footeux
.
The Belgium international, who is the brother of Chelsea's
Eden, has come to the attention of Arsene Wenger
following some impressive performances.
But the Gunners are likely to face competition from
Everton, with the player valued at around €18 million.
BAYERN WON'T MATCH
ALEXIS' WAGE
Bayern Munich are ready to pull out of the race to sign
Alexis Sanchez as the Arsenal attacker's wages are too
high for them, Bild reports.
The German giants were willing to offer a maximum of €16
million per season to the Chile star, but he already earns
€20m at the Emirates Stadium.
CITY CONFIDENT OF ALEXIS &
WALKER
Manchester City's players believe Alexis Sanchez and Kyle
Walker will be joining them next season for a combined
£100 million, according to the Daily Mirror .
The Arsenal star has been linked to City as his contract
continues to run down at the Emirates Stadium while
Walker looks set to exit Spurs after an apparent falling out
with Mauricio Pochettino.
BAYERN AHEAD IN ALEXIS
RACE
Alexis Sanchez's agent is in talks with Bayern Munich
after the German champions agreed to meet both the player
and Arsenal's financial demands, according El Mercurio .
Bayern are prepared to pay $65 million (£50m) to sign
the Chilean and hand him a $14.5m-a-year (£11.2m)
contract but Manchester City also remain interested.
UTD OPEN TO SMALLING
OFFERS
Manchester United will entertain summer transfer bid for
centre-back Chris Smalling, ESPN reports.
The article claims Smalling has fallen behind Phil Jones,
Marcos Rojo and Eric Bailly in the centre-back pecking
order, and with Michael Keane looking likely to join in the
summer Smalling looks to be first for the chopping block.
Arsenal have shown interest in Smalling in the past, with
Arsene Wenger said to be an admirer.
ARSENAL PLOT HULK SWOOP
Arsenal will look to bring Hulk back to Europe from
Shanghai SIPG if Alexis Sanchez leaves the club this
summer, reports Don Balon .
The Brazilian has been in China since June 2016, but the
Gunners see him as an ideal replacement for a man who
could move on as he prepares to enter the final 12 months
of his contract.
ARSENAL OPEN ONYEKURU
TALKS
Arsenal have opened talks regarding a move for KAS Eupen
striker Henry Onyekuru, according to Sky Sports .
The 19-year-old is the top scorer in the Belgian top-flight
this season having found the net on 20 occasions and
though the Gunners are in the driving seat to bring him to
the Premier League, Everton and Southampton are also
interested.
OSPINA IN FENER TALKS
Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina is in talks with Turkish
side Fenerbahce, according to the Mirror .
The Colombia goalkeeper is growing frustrated at the lack
of playing time at the Emirates, with Petr Cech preferred at
the club's first choice.
KOSCIELNY IN EXIT TALKS
Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny is in talks with
Marseille over a potential summer switch to Ligue 1,
according to a report from Canal Plus cited by GFFN .
The Gunners centre-back has made 32 Premier League
appearances for Arsene Wenger's side and has three years
remaining on his current deal at the Emirates.
With the future of Arsenal boss Wenger uncertain,
however, the French publication claims Koscielny is keeping
his options open ahead of next season.
USMANOV ATTEMPTS
ARSENAL TAKEOVER
Uzbek-born billionaire Alisher Usmanov has attempted to
take control of Arsenal from major shareholder Stan
Kroenke, according to the Financial Times .
The metal magnate currently owns 30 per cent of the
London club, and has offered Kroenke £1 billion to buy
the American's 67 per cent stake. Kroenke has been
involved with Arsenal since 2007 and is unwilling to sell his
share to Usmanov.
GIROUD EYES ARSENAL EXIT
Olivier Giroud is ready to quit Arsenal this summer in order
to keep his 2018 World Cup dream alive, reports the Daily
Mirror .
The France international has struggled for starts at times
this season and will push for a move if further striking
reinforcements are brought in when the transfer window re-
opens.
MAHREZ WANTS LEICESTER
EXIT
Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez wants to leave the
King Power Stadium this summer, according to the Daily
Telegraph .
The Algeria international vowed to remain with the Foxes
this season, but believes he has now honoured an agreement
made last summer and should be allowed to move on.
Tottenham, Arsenal and Chelsea are likely to be interested
in the 2016 PFA Player of the Year.
