Arsenal will reportedly complete the signing of Shkodran Mustafi by Wednesday according to a report from our good friend, Emmanuel Giulianelli, who also claims this will happen unless it doesn’t.
Of course, he doesn’t actually say that but he may as well as he takes a stab at guessing when a deal the boss said we are currently negotiating will happen in the hopes that he looks like he is ITK.
Valencia are delaying hoping for other clubs to compete. If not, Mustafi deal should be completed by Wednesday! #Arsenal #afc

He might be, and he’s treated by many on the internet as if he is, but I’m not so sure.

And one he has since deleted that said:

Liverpool have recently been linked with a move for Mustafi but I actually doubt their interest.
The whole thing smells like transfer nonsense fed to the press to drive a player’s price up.
