Just as everyone was thinking that AW had changed his transfer policy I have news that will please some and infuriate others. The signings of Chamakh, Squillaci and Koscielny seemed to have taken Arsene Wenger into another direction. This however is not the case!
Arsene Wenger seems to have taken a u turn and gone back to what he has become famous for, signing youngsters and turning them into superstars. Maksym Koval is quite possibly the best under 17 goalkeeper in the whole of Europe. He has already played in the CL for his club Dynamo Kiev and is expected to become Ukraine number 1 within two years.
At 17 he is already 6ft 1″ and has excellant reflexes and positional sense. A move for Koval seems a certainty in the january transfer window.
With all of the hype of young Belgium players it is of no suprise that Arsenal are leading the race to sign Anderlecht superstarlet Romelu Lukaku. Lukaku is an absolute bull of a centre forward in the mould of Didier Drogba. It seemed as though Chelsea and Inter were leading the race but Arsenal have suddenly jumped to the top with a clear lead. This maybe because Wenger is also interested in signing Romelu’s 15yr old brother Joradan at the same time?
Jordan is a left back but is certain to grow into a centre half with time. Mr and Mrs Lukaku would love their sons to go to the same club and Arsene Wenger seems to have given them their wish.
