Juventus to tempt Arsenal with £10m for Walcott?

Juventus prepare to offer £10 million for Walcott by TS

Arsenal are going to have a torrid time  holding onto Theo Walcott, if reports are anything to go by. It seems that Juventus are plotting to snatch the Arsenal winger by submitting an offer for his services close to the £10 million mark. This comes after tensions between the player and club became apparent when Walcott was allowed to enter the last 12 months of his contract after snubbing a long term deal worth a reported £75k weekly wage.

Theo Walcott had been linked to many big clubs during the summer transfer period, including Liverpool, Manchester City and PSG but was not sold for one reason or another, Arsene Wenger stated that he was confident that things would be worked out. Since Arsenal refused to meet the England international’s demands, however, the doorway has been left open.

Juventus are apparently the first club to step through that door carrying a £10 million gift that should be enough to entice Arsene Wenger to sell Walcott. It’s no revelation that the Arsenal boss would rather make some money off the player than have him leave for free. The added bonus comes that Walcott wouldn’t go to an English opposition either as Arsenal supporters saw with the departure of RVP.

The 23 year old winger has started just once in Arsenal’s three Premier League matches thus far in the season and the emergence of Alex Oxlade Chamberlain may well be the impetus Wenger needs to release Walcott. The England international has consistently failed to live up to his potential and with him entering his seventh season at Arsenal, these next few months may just decide his future-if it hasn’t been already.

Arsenal are familiar with the Turin side, already having loaned out Bendtner to Juventus on a season long deal. Can Walcott prove his worth at the Emirates or is the Arsenal winger living on borrowed time?

Juventus reluctantly hijacked Siena deal for Nicklas Bendtner

It has been revealed that Nicklas Bendtner is undergoing a medical at Juventus today, but it has now been revealed that the Arsenal striker was all set to move to Siena before “The Old Lady” hijacked the deal.

The Siena sporting director Stefano Antonelli told Sky Sport Italia. “It was seemingly an impossible operation, but we had an agreement with Arsenal and with the player,”

“It seemed like a dream, but, at one point, it looked as if we had him. The interest from Juventus then changed the scenario.”

“Having chosen Juve, he still phoned our President out of respect,” Antonelli concluded. “He, and his agent, behaved in the right way.”

Although Juventus hijacked the deal, their Sporting Director Giuseppe Marotta admitted that they did it out of desperation because they couldn’t agree terms for Fernando Llorente or Stevan Jovetic.

Juve also missed out on Dimitar Berbatov yesterday, and Moratta slammed the Man Utd striker for his unprofessionalism. Morrata said: “We reiterate that we only approached Manchester United and the player after we were informed he had already turned down Fiorentina. Perhaps he forgot to tell Fiorentina that.

“Berbatov certainly did not make a good impression on anyone and it was an unprofessional way to behave, so we agree with Fiorentina that it’s best he didn’t come here.”

So then they finally turned to Bendtner as a last resort. “Bendtner is not the high-profile striker we were hoping to sign, but it’s a chance we had to take in a difficult market like this.” Moratta said.

So Bendtner nearly accepted a place at a non-Champions League side??? Well as Moratta said earlier, this is Bendtner’s big chance to really prove himself at the highest level….by default!

Juventus lead race for Arsenal captain

Van Persie Offered Juventus Chance by AH

Juventus have prepared a £20 million bid for Arsenal’s Robin Van Persie and they are also willing to pay him £190,000 per week if the offer is accepted.

This news comes from various sources and there’s no doubting the Old Lady’s interest. Juventus have already had 2 bids, £8 million and £10 million, rejected by Arsenal, whilst Manchester City and Manchester United have also both had £15 million bids rejected.

Originally its was understood that Juventus were not willing to bid over £15 million for the player but long negotiations and an enquiry for Liverpool’s Luis Suarez dismissed, have persuaded the club to free a little bit more money to bid the £20 million that Arséne Wenger is willing to consider.

Even though Wenger said he wants to keep Van Persie, there were suggestions that he would accept a £30 million bid for the Dutchman. But if Wenger believes there is honestly no hope in convincing Van Persie to stay and commit to a new contract during the season, then he should accept this offer from Juventus as it’s the best outcome for the club.

It’s likely that Manchester City would be willing to offer the £30 million but that would worsen Arsenal in terms of challenging and we can no longer continue to allow our players to leave for Man City. Most Arsenal fans would rather accept £10 million less to make sure that Van Persie no longer players in England and there’s no doubting that selling abroad is the best option for Arsenal but it’s not the best option for the Money orientated board.

So what will happen? Wenger originally wanted to talk with Van persie on the Asia tour however now that he has been left behind it seems that Arsenal have no interest at all in keeping him, I mean even Nasri went on the Asia tour!

Arsenal Debate: Should we make a loss by selling to Juventus instead of Man City?

Posted on July 18, 2012 by admin

All the latest Arsenal transfer rumours concerning Robin Van Persie appear to indicate that Juventus and Man City are the front-runners for his signature, with Man United as outsiders, although a partnership with Wayne Rooney would make more sense if he stays in the Premier League rather than fighting for a place in Man City’s star-studded team.

It is being reported that Robin’s favoured destination is Italy with the Serie A Champions, but it is a matter of record that they simply cannot afford to compete with the likely bids to come out of Manchester.

So with Arsenal (including our captain) are set to fly out on tour to the Far East, Arsene Wenger and the board are left with an intriguing dilemma. Should they let Robin go to Juventus on the cheap, or should they take the extra money on offer from City even though it will strengthen one of our rvals even more?

There is of course the other possibility that Arsenal will hold RVP to his contract for the last year, but with Sky Sports reporting that there are many offers on the table, plus the boards past performance of cashing in on contract rebels, it now seems certain that he will be leaving.

So back to the original question. Sell to Juventus at a loss? Or take the (extra) millions on offer from Manchester?

What do you think?
