Lucas Perez Archives: 08/2016

With Lucas Perez predicted to sign for Arsenal very soon, it’s highly likely that the forward will be getting the number 9 shirt, still left empty by Lukas Podolski.

Lucas Perez has reportedly passed his Arsenal medical and according to a couple of sources, is set to be announced along with Shkodran Mustafi very soon.

The BBC’s David Ornstein a.k.a. The Ornacle has once again spoken, claiming that Shkodran Mustafi and Lucas Perez are set to have their medicals with Arsenal very soon.

Arsene Wenger has confirmed that he’s ‘99%’ sure that Shkrodran Mustafi and Lucas Perez will signing for Arsenal in the new few days.

It seems like it is just a formality that Lucas Perez will be an Arsenal signing sooner rather than later.

After weeks of complaining nothing was happening Arsenal seem to have put a rocket up their arse and look close to completing two deals at the same time.

If you took a day off from the internet, you’ll have likely missed things going a little bit nuts on Thursday.

Arsenal have agreed a deal for Luxa Perez by offering to pay his 20m release fee however the total of the deal, excluding wages, will be €24.2m as they have to pay the VAT as well.

Reports from Spain have been picked up by the BBC claiming that Arsenal have had a bid that was already said to be accepted, rejected because they wanted to pay in two instalments instead of paying it all up front – but this is probably not true.

After a number of weeks with nothing happening it seems like it could be all kicking off with reports from Turkey claiming Arsenal are closing in on Omer Toprak after it was announced in Spain that the Gunners had agreed to pay Lucas Perez’s release clause of €20m.

Marca are today claiming that Deportivo La Coruna’s Lucas Perez is Arsenal-bound after the Gunners agreed to pay his €20m release clause.
