Nuri Sahin

AS says he's going to England to join a PL club on loan. Now Marca reporting the same and say the team is Arsenal - http://www.marca.com/2012/07/27/futbol/equipos/real_madrid/1343386010.html

Daily Mail reporting it also. No option to buy.

Wowza.

Surprising.

The guy needs to play every week, and I wouldn't expect him to play much here if / when Jack gets back. Good, but I don't like loans, and I like them even less if there's no option to buy.

Please be true.

Him and Cazorla and we have our first mad uncontrollable joyous willy shaking moment in years

The lack of an option to buy is dissapointing.

If it keeps him away from the Lane then fine but not overly keen especially on the speculated terms.

😆 Forever the voice of reason.

If Sahin's coming, I'd be hugely surprised if Cazorla did too.

goon

If he's coming in on loan I'd assume it's to ease the pressure on Jack.

If it's a season long loan, that means its a stop gap until Jack and Rosicky is better, and have insurance when Diaby eventually breaks down. Good deal I say. Who cares if we don't have option to buy at the end of the season, if we want him and he wants to stay we will get him.

I hope this happens, even if on loan would be a massive deal. And i think we can get cazorla on top of that as well.

Mirth

No way we're bringing in both Cazorla and Sahin. Usually when this happens, it means we've lost out elsewhere.

Patters

I get the feeling, if we're truly in for either, it'll be one or the other but not both. Given a choice between sahin on loan and cazorla for 4 years, you'd have to hope for the cazorla one every time. Not sure the money men at Arsenal will see it the same way.

Nela

What's the point if there's no option to buy?

Even as a stop gap for Wilshere, a simple loan is not good enough. What if he's great and then he just returns to RM and we have no power?

We're not Bolton FFS!

asajoseph

Well Marca have changed their tune already. They now just say he's on his way to England, removed the part about him joining Arsenal.

Rohit

I don't quite understand what the problem with the loan is. The concern obviously being that he hasn't played much for a year but if we need a stop gap solution then this is not a bad move. In another season we would have just utilized another internal resource. We have some good talent coming through and having a player like Sahin for a year who will certainly play to impress will do no harm. It allows us to bring in a youngster while also not losing out in the short term. Doubt this will happen though.

😆 We're not even sure if there are legs to this rumour and you're worked up about his contract?

Shinda

So what if it don't have an option to buy, that means nothing in the modern games

Sahin is not signing for us, don't believe the rumors, his off to Tottenham. Hope I'm wrong, though I doubt I am

Would make more sense for them to get him on loan as Spurs and Madrid sort out the Modric deal.Really hope not though.
