I’m getting sick of this Inaki Cana guy wanting to sign all his old mates.
And now we are linked to Joan Garcia goalkeeper age 23 from Espanyol . Barcelona's second la liga team ,
It has now been reported by Spanish outlet Relevo that Arsenal’s interest in Garcia is being driven byl goalkeeping coach Inaki Cana.
“Arsenal goalkeeper coach Inaki Cana is a big fan of Joan and firmly believes in his quality as an elite goalkeeper. Cana knows him very closely because of his experience as a goalkeeper coach in Catalonia,” the report revealed.

Marvellous. Now will someone please tell Arteta to forget goalkeepers and defenders for five minutes and buy the striker and centre mid that we desperately need.
Arsenal confirm Albert Sambi Lokonga has joined Sevilla on loan for the season.
Deal will contain an option to be made permanent for around £10m.
If Sevilla take up that, Arsenal will have a sell-on clause worth around 25 per cent.
Just kicking the can down the road ..... AGAIN The cone boy bought him, played him a few times in his first season, then decided that he wasnt ready or isnt good enough, then decided to send him out on loan, and now he is sending him out on loan again with NO OBLIGATION to buy - when you look back and think about how long it took Bergkamp, Henry and Pires to adapt to our league, you have to wonder would they have ever become AFC legends if the cone boy was in charge cos if you dont hit the ground running with him then you are out the door Why buy them in the first place if you dont believe in them, and if you do believe in them then ffs give them a chance to adapt And if our players go out on loan like lokonga, then it has to be with an obligation to buy imo
Arsenal offered Jakub Kiwior on loan with an obligation to buy to Bologna in an attempt to break the deadlock in negotiations for Riccardo Calafiori, however, Bologna rejected the proposal. [@qn_carlino] #afc
Bologna know that if Arsenal don't buy him there are other decent teams waiting in the queue.
He is a good player, but does have a recent history of injuries and how many times have we bought players who end up being on the Sick List all the time?
