Arsenal Transfer News: Defender Linked | Interest In Striker Revealed | Blackburn Speak Out On Samba
Another couple of days of transfer gossip, news, rumors, speculation goes by surrounding the Gunners. There is, as usual, interesting news and headlines, so without further ado… here is the Arsenal Transfer News Roundup from the last couple of days.
Blackburn Owners Want Samba Stay
After weeks of speculation, news and such, stating that Samba is closing in on a move to the Gunners. Anuradha Desai, stated during an interview with the Daily Mail that they wish to hold on to Chris Samba for at least one more season and they’ll do whatever they can to convince Samba to stay. This is what she said:
‘We don’t want to let Chris go,’ said Desai. ‘I’m confident that we can keep him and I hope he’ll stay.
‘I know he has an ambition to play for Arsenal but I hope we can keep him for another year at least and prove our own ambition.’
Looks like the Gunners, still have a long way to go if they want to acquire the Blackburn skipper; they won’t let go of him without a fight.

Arsenal want Jose Enrique as a replacement for Clichy
Many reports are filtering around, suggesting and stating for weeks, that Arsenal are interested in Newcastle’s Jose Enrique and are considering him as a replacement, in case Clichy leaves. This report states that the Gunners have already met with Jose Enrique’s representatives and reports vary his value between 10-15 million pounds. In my opinion, Jose Enrique would be a solid addition if he were to join the Gunners.

Arsenal interested in Roma’s Vucinic
There are reports stating that Arsenal and Manchester United have held talks with the agent representing AS Roma and Montenegrin international star, Mirko Vucinic. Vucinic, is considered one of the best strikers in the Serie A, known for his excellent skills and technique and can not play as a central forward, but also as a left winger. Despite this, Mirko Vucinic is valued at 26 million pounds, which is a turn off and an over hyped price tag.
