Well, there have been lots of transfer rumours involving Arsenal lately, but can they put words into actions? The word on the street is Arsenal are set to offer a total of £22m for Manchester City and Bolton stars.
The Manchester City player Arsenal are looking to sign is in fact Irish goalkeeper, Shay Given. Given has been sitting on the sidelines recently and is being kept out through Joe Hart’s impeccable form, therefore possibly offering Arsenal to get him on the cheap.
It is no secret that Arsene Wenger has been on the search for a new goalkeeper recently, with summer bids confirmed for both Mark Schwarzer and Pepe Reina, due to the inconsistent performances of Manuel Almunia and Lukasz Fabianski. And now a move for the other of favour Given has been mooted.
The rumours have also been circulating that Arsenal are prepared to launch a bid for Bolton centerback Gary Cahill, as they try and get backup, or maybe even a long term replacement for that problematic centerback position at the Emirates.
Arsenal have again looked vulnerable at the back at times this season and summer signings Koscielny and Squiallci have both struggled to put in consistent performances week in week out. The long term injury problems for Vermaelen have seen him out for the entire season and it’s thought Wenger will look to bring in an established centre back this summer with Cahill top of his wish list.
