Heard Zaragoza loan is on the cards

"We have not received any firm offer from Arsenal and, thus, there is no question of the €5 million reported," Geronimi is quoted as saying.
"This week I have had Arsene Wenger on the phone twice. He expressed his interest in the player to us, but it has not gone beyond that."

Thuavin
Have an image of Wenger as some kind of phonejacker now

Newcastle in for him

Pardew doing his best impression of Wenger on the phone.

Pardew's going for chemistry at Newcastle

I've noticed Pardiola's collection of scarves recently. Fancies himself un peu francais, non ? Pourquoi pas !

“Arsene wants 12 racing cars all the same — he’s the best manager, so he wins. We have followed the rules.”

Mello

You what?

Twitter talk about jovetic

Still the best rumour out there for me

Captain

Seems viable.

What's encouraging about the Jovetic rumour is that it originated in the Italian press as oppposed to local press quoting British sources.
He's eligible for CL too

Did it?

I thought the Italian press quoted the English press as their source?

Klaus

Quoted Caught offside. There's no way Fiorentina would sell him right now. Maybe in the summer if Rossi makes a successful comeback.

I think we're looking at Diame and Villa personally. Just need Diaby to to his hammy before the transfer window closes but the odds are good.

Don't think so, Gazetta carried the story, you have to have an account to read the article but they're not quoting British sources

The oracle Geoff says Diame is not happening :angel:

Klaus

If it's the rumour from the other day they used Caught Offside as a source. It wasn't a first-hand story. Maybe this is a different one then?

Cross seems to think that we're still in for Diame for what it's worth: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/arsenal-transfers-diame-and-villa-transfers-1555936

Think the sorce is La Nazione which is the Florence local paper.
They're definitely not quoting Caught Offside.
Think it's highly unlikely that Wenger will make this happen but there might be something in the rumours

Being in for Diame does kind of blow Wenger's cover of only being interested in top, top quality.

Klaus

Hmm. I can't find any source for the Jovetic rumour (which is mentioned in a single sentence) in that article. Iit looks like some kind of weekly rumour roundup or something.

I really hope there's a grain of truth in there somewhere though. Signing him would make up for all the shit this club has pulled lately.

Klaus

That article also says that Hernanes don't want to extend his contract with Lazio. His deal expires in 2015. We need to be all over that in the summer. He's brilliant.
