According to reports from The Sun, the Gunners are
in talks in adding to Riyad Mahrez to the signing of Jamie Vardy in a striking
double raid on the Foxes.
The north Londoners are in talks to increase their squad
by adding Riyad Mahrez to the signing of Jamie Vardy in a striking double raid
on Leicester City.
Reports from FoxSports also claims that the Gunners manager,
Arsene Wenger has by now met the £20million release clause of the Foxes striker
Jamie Vardy, who has also per reports had his medical today at London Colney.
Here and now, in a different farfetched twist, the
29-year-old is set to be joined possible his move to the Emirates outfits
becomes authenticity by Riyad Mahrez his PFA Player of the Year team-mate.
Arsenal are shocked that Mahrez’s release clause is
so low and now have now the Gunners has well and truly sparked the break-up of
the Premier League-winning Foxes team.
In January 2014, Mahrez, the Algerian international cost the
Foxes only £400,000 from Le Havre and with a slow star he eventually became a
Premier League superstar.
When asked the Foxes manager, Claudio Ranieri about star
striker, Vardy’s release clause being met, was forced to admit, “It’s all true”
However, the Gunners swoop for Mahrez who also means that
that Theo Walcott’s future at Arsenal is all-but over.
Walcott has been frozen out of the north Londoners first-team
after an injury-prone career and now seems likely the 27-year-old would head to
West Ham.
The North London club had another unsatisfactory
season last term, falling off the pace in the Premier League behind Tottenham and
champions Leicester.
Eventually the Gunners overhauled Spurs into second,
on the last day of the season.
Nevertheless, Arsenal fans were united in their
disappointment around their title assault in a season where Chelsea, Manchester
United, Manchester City, and Chelsea are all flattered.
From the reports elsewhere, it also
claims that the new Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has identified Arsenal
midfielder, Jack Wilshere, as his prime target for the summer transfer window.
Guardiola’s predecessor, Manuel
Pellegrini also rated the 24-year-old highly. However, Wilshere broke his leg
in Arsenal’s pre-season last year, which forced Pellegrini to back off from
his pursuit. Wishere has two years left
on his contract with the Gunners and a new contract has been mooted.
The Gunners signed Granit Xhaka last
month and are expected to further fortify their midfield before the end of this
season.
One thing that might force Manchester
City to make their move for the England international will be the performance
of the 24-year-old in the upcoming EURO 2016.
Yet he is likely to be interested in joining the Pep
revolution, especially as midfield competition has become stronger at the
Emirates with the arrival of Granit Xhaka.
Despite sitting out most of last
season, Wilshere has been included in the 23-man English contingent that will
travel to France later this month.
Therefore, if 24-year-old makes his
move to the Etihad, he will join his forces with former Arsenal players like
Gael Clichy and Samir Nasri.
