With Merino, sounds like we’ve been caught on the fly. Tipping us to sign a striker may be a long shot now.

🚨 JUST IN from @ed_aarons:

Arsenal's first official bid for Mikel Merino, believed to be worth €25m, was rejected. 🇪🇸

Real Sociedad are holding out for a fee of around €35m. 💵

Typical Arsenal :lol: 10m short of the asking price.

Can't we just throw in the slug, the feather and the cocktail stick and say "ere ya Go! Three Top Players ( :oops: :-P ) and £25mill...

The saving on those three's wages alone would pay for the deal and then some. :?

Knowing us, we'll tell them we're not interested in offering any more money then in about a week's time, ring them up and ask if they're open to selling us Zubimendi for 250 grand.

Not only are we shite at transfers BUT we drag them out so long that truly no-one gives a flying fuck if we sign the player or not. Especially when it’s a player that barely anyone knew existed 3 months ago.
