Just Arsenal News

The highly talented Turkish midfielder Arda Turan has been linked with Arsenal ever since he was a precocious teenager at Galatasary, but he preferred to serve his apprenticeship in his home country. When he finally decided to leave Turkey, he was snapped up by Atletico Madrid for just £12million and moved to La Liga.

He has been so successful in Spain, especially in his partnership with the prolific hitman Falcao, that he is now valued at double that price. He is now 26 years-old and is apparently considering a move to the Premiership and his agent, Ahmet Bulut, has revealed that he has been in talks with Arsenal and Liverpool. .......Read the full article here

Many Arsenal fans were extremely surprised when the Gunners supersub (and cult hero) Emmanuel Eboue announced that he was moving to Turkey with Galatasary last summer.

It was questioned whether this was a wise move by Wenger considering that Eboue was a very versatile and talented backup for the Arsenal defence (and how man times could we have used him this season?), but Eboue himself has now revealed that it was Wenger who urged him to accept the offer from the Turkish giants.

“Arsene Wenger told me it would be very hard for me to get a place in the first team, and because of that, I wanted to leave,” Eboue said. .......Read the full article here

When Sagna was out injured not too long ago, Arsenal have since been suffering in the right back position. Bacary Sagna has been an extremely important part to the Arsenal backline, his backup will also be essential as seen in recent matches where Arsenal look rather vulnerable on the right. So the question comes, should we have let Emmanuel Eboue the party animal to leave the club? .......Read the full article here

It is being reported today that Arsenal have agreed a £4m fee with the Turkish giants Galatasary for the 28 year-old defender Emmanuel Eboue, and he is leaving with Arsene Wenger’s blessing.

We all knew that Denilson and Bendtner were going to be out the door, but Eboue was thought to be staying at Arsenal for life! He has had his bad times when he was massively abused by the fans, but after getting over that bad period he has become a bit of a cult figure, despite never managing to hold down a permanent first team place. .......Read the full article here

The ever-erratic Arsenal defender Emmanuel Eboue has reached the great age of 28, but has never really made a name for himself as a regular in the Gunners first team.

He was a near hate-figure for the Arsenal fans a few seasons ago but has now become like a lovable uncle that cheers up his family by clowning around every now and then!

But now it seems his Arsenal career is coming to an end. He was left behind in London when Arsene Wenger took his squad to Malaysia on tour, and in company with Nicklas Bendtner and Manuel Almunia he has been trying to find a new club for next season, and it seems that he has now found a match. .......Read the full article here

The Turkish genius Arda Turan has been linked with Arsenal for the last couple of years, and he has now decided that it is time for him to leave Galatasary and Turkey, and at the moment it looks like his most likely destination is London.

Both Tottenham and Arsenal have both registered their interest in the talented playmaker, but his agent is still waiting for a concrete offer. Perhaps Wenger is still waiting to see what happens with Fabregas, but Turan is an extremely talented youngster. He has been captain of his team for the last year, despite only being 23 years old, and is experienced in Europe and internationally. .......Read the full article here

The Turkish genius Arda Turan said earlier this year that he was keen on working with Arsene Wenger, and recently he has been linked with a move to the Premiership, which is his preferred destination, with both Arsenal and Liverpool.

Today his agent, Ahmet Bulut, has said that both clubs have made discreet enquiries, but it would take a “serious offer” for Galatasary to let Turan go, as he still has two years remaining on his contract.

He told Sport: “Well Arda still has two years to go on his contract, the interested clubs must make a serious offer to Galatasaray, and the club must accept it. His first choice is to play in England, in the Premier League. So, if the offer is a serious one than we can start to talk. .......Read the full article here

The Arsenal rumours are never far away from a Sunday paper, and they seem to pick players that are getting harder and harder to pronounce!

Zhano Ananidze is famously dubbed the “new Georgi Kinkladze”, although i don’t remember the first one being that special!

This Georgian international (okay he’s played for the national team once!) is only a kid at 17 years-of-age, and has only played six times for his club, Spartak Moscow.

But he is already a record-breaker, as the midfielder became the youngest player ever to score in the Russian Premier League at 17 years and 8 days old last week, which is probably why he is suddenly being linked with Arsenal. .......Read the full article here

The Turkish wonderkid Arda Turan has been linked with Arsenal many times over the last couple of years, but has always said that he wanted to continue his development in Turkey.

Now he has turned 20, it seems he is ready to make the next step, and, according to his agent, Arsene Wenger was keen to sign him last summer and now Turan wants to cement the deal.

Ahmet Bulut, Turan’s agent said today: “At this moment in time I have no contact with any clubs. I had a lot of interest in the summer for him, but the club did not want to sell him,” .......Read the full article here
