While almost all clubs are fighting to bring the best players in the house, last season title competitor, Arsenal, is about to lose two of the best players from the first 11.
Arsenal would like to keep Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri, but chances for this to happen are quite small. Fabregas, who was on holiday in Spain, returned Tuesday to the club, but with though to leave, because Barcelona has made a new offer, this time putting on the table 35 million pounds. Nasri is still on vacation, and his situation is more complicated, as he is in the last 12 months of the contract.
The team from London refused an offer of 27 million pounds from the Catalans, but the new advanced amount, 35 million pounds, seems to appeal to the leadership of the Emirates.
Fabregas started the 2004-05 season at Arsenal and at the end of that won the FA Cup editions. Unfortunately, the only trophy was to be conquered with London team until today. Nasri, who came in 2008, failed even that, which is why he rejected the offer of renewal of contract with the Gunners, worth 90,000 pounds a week.
Things don’t look too good for Arsenal. Will this affect the next season? We shall find out soon!
