#1 Arsenal

The Gunners have been quite active today. The Times is reporting that Arsenal have hit a wall in Malcom’s negotiations as the Brazilian isn’t agreeing to the terms proposed by the Gunners.
The North London outfit are yet to agree on a fee with Bordeaux, who are reportedly “annoyed” with the Londoners over their public approach. Meanwhile, The Sun believes that Jonny Evans could be sold if West Brom get an offer of £23.5 million for the defender.
Both Arsenal and Manchester City are interested in the defender.
A part of me thinks that Arsenal could use the Alexis money to sign Evans, but that’s just my personal opinion.
Also, Arsene Wenger gave his take on the Sanchez-Mkhi deal in a press conference, admitting that the deal is close.
‘That is my understanding, yes,’ he said in a press conference.
‘Yes of course [Mkhitaryan is a player I rate]. If [the deal] is a possibility then it is because I like the player. ‘Look, this would be an exchange of players and I think one will replace the other. We will still be in the transfer market after that.’
‘We played many times against him when he was at Dortmund, so he is certainly appreciative of the quality of our games and the way we play football, so that’s why certainly he loves the club as well.’
