Arsenal Gossip Archives: 08/2016

Napoli look like they are far more interested in signing Mauro Icardi than Arsenal in a transfer that has ‘Gonzalo Higuain’ written all over it.

Arsenal may just have been handed a massive boost after Lyon’s manager, Bruno Genesio, reportedly said there are some offers that a club can’t refuse and that Alexandre Lacazette could leave.

Reports from France claim that Riyad Mahrez is more concerned with playing for a club with an established style of playing rather than a mega paypacket which means he must surely want no-one other than Arsenal (or Barca).

Arsene Wenger was asked, again, about signing Riyad Mahrez and he set Arsenal fans a’ flutter with his troll face that many believe he flashes before he signs a player.

According to reports in Spain, Arsenal are set to ‘accelerate’ a move for Hector Moreno who is currently sidelined with a thigh injury.

Granit Xhaka has denied ever speaking to Liverpool or Jurgen Klopp about a potential move to Anfield despite wide press coverage claiming he was their ‘number one target.’

Zinedine Zidane has confirmed that Real Madrid’s Jese could be set to leave the club but Alvaro Morata, supposedly bought just to be resold, will stay with the club next season.

Arsenal have reportedly bid €16m for Torino’s Bruno Peres as they look to bring in defensive reinforcements before the window shuts.

It was another quiet weekend as we wait for the arrival of proper football, but that hasn’t stopped the little transfer beavers working really hard to convince us all they know stuff they really don’t.

Arsenal have allegedly opened talks with Torino in regards to signing their wing-back, Bruno Peres.

Reports on Sunday claimed that Chelsea were moving closer to a deal to re-sign Romelu Lukaku from Everton, breaking Arsenal hearts.

Last week it was reported that Arsenal, Roma and Wojciech Szczesny had finally agreed a deal that would see the Pole return to Italy for next season.

Arsenal and Mauro Icardi continued to get acquainted with each other this weekend as it was claimed that an offer has been made.
