Ed. Is there any chance of Sanchez to PSG?

{Ed002's Note - Absolutely.}

Thanks for coming back Ed002. Do you think if a deal for Sanchez goes through it will be a straight cash deal or will PSG include some players in the transfer i. e. Aurier, Matuidi, Rabiot? Any response is appreciated.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - They may consider discussing players at the same time but Arsenal would have no interest in discussing players they are not looking to.}

Thanks Ed, I thought we would have an interest in Matuidi but obviously not. PSG will have an incredible team if the manage to sign both Neymar and Sanchez.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Sure but PSG has a lot of players they are moving on and if Arsenal agree to a discussion they will not want to complicate matters.}

Ed not trying to push my luck here but while your available could I ask you if PSG securing Sanchez would in effect end their interest in Benzema and cut our competion for his signature down to just the Milan clubs? And do you think the lack of CL football would make Benzema less likely to consider us at all from what youv gathered? I know youv eluded to the fact that Real won't even consider his sale unless they secure Mbappe or Lewandowski but do you feel Benzema would be interested in joining Arsenal regardless as I find it a little bit of a stretch imagining he'd fancy the change of scenery.
Thanks.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - PSG want a "well known" French player and several fit the bill - MBappe, Benzema, Griezmann, etc.. Out of the options available and with other plans I suspect, with the baggage, KB is the least likely of these.}

According to sky sports they will make a 35m bid next week. I hope we just laugh at them as we reject it. Last year in his contract or not I feel he's worth more.

Ed002! Glad you're back!

He's worth more to us. I feel he's going to stay.

Anything around the 60Mill mark from PSG and would accept it tbh it is clear Sanchez wants to move on and being in his final year of his contract it is silly to lose out on such a fee and risk losing to a PL rival in City for free for the sake of one season when we are not in the Champions league anyway. I think keeping Shanchez against his wish will be bad for the team balance and I think he will get too greedy and selfish on the ball trying to sell himself too much.

Any news on Leon Goretzka Edds?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - Leon Goretzka was of interest to Southampton but Schalke said they had intention of selling in the short-term but he has been reluctant to listen to offers of a new contract and they are now willing to listen to offers. Juventus are struggling to get their first choice option in midfield for this summer and are thought that they may be returning to Leon Goretzka - but have not made approaches to his club or agent. Arsenal might well look to him if they cannot get their preferred target. Spurs, Manchester City and Bayern Munich are also looking to Goretzka as a possible option.}

Do you know who arsenals preferred target is ed?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - We have been through all of this, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.}

22 Jul 2017 09:07:59
Ed002, welcome back and thanks for the info.

Sorry ed002, I must have missed that.

22 Jul 2017 09:28:26
Thank you very much Ed.

22 Jul 2017 10:29:31
Let's hope they don't get the first target then.

Agree1 Disagree0

Sorry Ed 002 but didn't Serjev only recently sign an extension with Lazio til 2022?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Yes he did.}

Goretzka is good enough to be the future of the Germany midfield. I don't know anything about Sergej but dubious whether he's actually better.
