TRANSFER NEWS: Gunners Meet With Agent Of Chelsea Target
Arsenal are hoping to hijack Chelsea’s attempts to sign Anderlecht star Romelu Lukaku, according to reports.
The teen starlet has been heavily linked with a move to West London this summer, but reports suggest the clubs were unable to agree a fee for the 18-year old.
According to reports in the Sun Arsenal have made a £14million bid for the player, after club officials meet with Lukaku’s agent on Friday.
The striker dubbed the “new Drogba” is touted as one of Europe’s most promising youngsters with Chelsea placing the forward top of their wish list this summer.
The striker himself admits it would be a “dream” to move to the Premiership with the Belgian outfit keen to cash in on Lukaku, the only question is, will gifted forward line up in North or West London next season.

We “Chelsea” were not serious. We don’t want to go far because we want to go fast. We ignored this guy yet in the next 2 seasons He’ll cost 40m. Where do we saw our seeds. God pliz help this young Russian with Gud advisors coz his environment is full of Hyenas en Iddi Amin Dadas of Uganda.

If anderlecht sell to the clueless gooners then I will eat my hat as Chelsea were offering 20 million plus they agreed to buy kevin de bruyne and loan him to anderlecht as a replacement for lukaku. Arsenal are stupid if they think they will get him

Wenger must just sort out team so that we can challenge on the field and negate all the anti-Arsenal press! I’ve never a witnessed such a tsunami of Arsenal haters! We are still standing firm!

Wenger please for the sake of us fans,team image,players,get us cahill,samba,muta,a goal keeper and maybe an established striker to take us to the promise land, forget mancini and all those stupied agitations,its not going to help us,with these players signed, Nasri will sign the dotted lines, this am sure of then offload bentner,schillaci,fabiaski, asharvin, alumuna,denilson is already gone and focus,the players you are begging to come will surely come begging to be considered then let fab go before he will start back passing to barca and other teams this season to show his displeasure,long live arsenal and fans,up gunners,shooting to the top we will this season God be our helper.

I am sick and tired of AW being link with all the players in this world. Look at other clubs doing well in the trasfer market, it is only us that left out because we have a manager who keeps the faith. I thoght he could have learn a lesson from our caling cup final but no instead he have shoosen to kill so many fans with hatache before he will do the right thing. Infact i don,t know Y he is so stubborn. Fabrigas is my best player but keaping him this season will be our bigest mistake because his spirit is no longer with us. Kudos to all the arsenal fans. Gunner till i die.
