Arsenal have made a bid for Felipe Melo just under the release clause in his contract but fiorentina are willing to do a deal with eboue as part of a player plus cash exchange, but reports today suggest that he is willing ti stay in italy so i think we will just have to wait and see how things pan out. There was also a story about Blaise Matuidi (who has been linked with Arsenal a lot over the last 2 years) wanting a summer move, ”My wish, if I have the chance, is to leave,” he told L’Equipe.

“If I have an opportunity, I will ask to leave. I have already said this in-house and the leaders understand my choice, but they also expressed their desire to keep me, which I find understandable.

“My wish is to leave because I think it’s time. Or, if it’s necessary and I stay, I would also be happy.”

But i wouldn’t really look into that too much i think Melo is our main target at the moment and there are a couple more like Inler and Veloso quite high on the list. and thats it for today.
