Liverpool And Arsenal Eye 12 Goal Dutch Dynamo – Reports

Leave a comment

Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs are all interested in Schalke’s Klass-Jan Huntelaar, but the German side are expected to put together a new contract for the Dutch striker before his current deal expires at the end of the season, as reported by the Daily Express.

Huntelaar could have moved to Arsenal on deadline day until Arsene Wenger was informed that Danny Welbeck was available to sign from Manchester United for only £16 million.

Schalke have seen Huntelaar become a key player for the side since his arrival from AC Milan in 2010, and he scored 12 goals in only 18 games for the club in the Bundesliga last season. They are loath to lose him on a free transfer at the end of the season, and are expected to put fresh terms in front of him.

Spurs are also keen on the striker, which is no surprise given their lack of options up front. Liverpool are also thought to be interested, despite the addition of Mario Balotelli.

The 31 year old has yet to decide if his future remains with Schalke, and could make the move to the Premier League, having played for the likes of Ajax and Real Madrid already in his career.

Arsenal And Liverpool Set For Disappointment Over 27-Year-Old Speedster – Reports

Leave a comment

Arsenal, Liverpool and fellow Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur could face disappointment in their chase for Lazio star Antonio Candreva after the Italian club looked to improve their chances of keeping the Italy international in Serie A, as reported by the Daily Star.

All three sides were suggested to be interested in signing him during the summer, but a move to bring him to England failed to be pushed through.

The 27-year-old, who is regarded as a winger possessing considerable pace, could see further interest in him in January. Should the three English sides progress in European competition, they would be able to offer him football at the highest level, especially Liverpool and Arsenal who are set to feature in the Champions League.

As a result, Lazio are hoping to stop the interest before it can truly begin by nearly doubling Candreva’s wages to £1.6 million per year, and securing the player to a new five year deal.

Candreva has spent time on loan with the likes of Livorno, Juventus, Parma and Cesena prior to moving to Lazio in 2012, where he has established himself as one of the top wingers in Serie A.

Failed Spurs Transfer Could Cause Axe To Fall – Reports

6 Comments

Tottenham Hotspur technical director Franco Baldini could find himself sacked as a result of the club’s failure to bring Danny Welbeck into the club on deadline day, with the former Man Utd star moving to arch rivals Arsenal instead, as reported by the Metro.

Daniel Levy, chief executive of the club, is said to be furious over the failed move from the Italian transfer wizard, and sees his ability to miss out on the England international, who moved to Arsenal for £16 million, as being worthy of the chop.

Baldini could now be sacked as part of a move by the White Hart Lane club to reshuffle the club’s back room staff before the January transfer window, with the hope that they won’t make a similar mistake again.

Manager Mauricio Pochettino had insisted on the need for a new striker at the north London club prior to the deadline, and it seemed as though Welbeck would be joining them on loan until Arsenal trumped them at the death.

Spurs now have only Emmanuel Adebayor, Roberto Soldado and Harry Kane as strikers in their squad.
