It was bound to happen. With heavy hints that Arsenal are about to part with Fabregas and Nasri the media are falling over themselves to spend the resulting cash.
Wenger meanwhile has been damping down talk of particular signings.
Most exciting rumour has to be The Sun’s Tevez Nasri swap. A deal made in heaven as far as they are concerned with two want-away stars to shift. It’s rounded off with the obligatory quote from a senior Arsenal source. No mention about how the difference in value would be dealt with.
The Mata and Jadson stories both get another run out, plus a repeat mention of every central defender tipped so far this summer.
As an alternative to Jadson, some, particularly The Mail, are tipping FC Twente’s Bryan Ruiz.
Meanwhile the only hard news is that Arsenal have agreed terms for the young Costa Rican striker, Joel Campbell.
