Arsenal target Pepe Reina while Arshavin might be on his way out-of-form
Arsenal are reportedly looking to target Liverpool's first choice goal keeper http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pepe-Reina-c29672, after reports emerged that the player is going to be available in the market for around 20 million pounds.
The keeper only added fuel to fire when he went on to hint that he could also potentially be looking for a move away from Anfield, after stating that he wished to compete in the Champions League
season in and season out.
Reina is quite easily one of the best keepers in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 if not in the world at the moment. The keeper has been in unstoppable form ever since he made a move to Anfield in 2005 from Villareal, and
since then has managed to be the teams most consistent performer. Despite http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 not performing at their best off-late, the keeper has still managed to maintain his stance of being one of the best in the business.
On the other hand, Arsenal have almost always had a problem in their goal-keeping department. The Gunners' squad has almost always looked as one of the best in the world, but they seem to always
be dragged down by goal-keeping horrors. With that in mind, it is safe to say that Reina is just the sort of keeper that the team needs to stabilize what could be considered as their only weakness on the pitch.
With the news of a world class player potentially making his way to the Emirates, there is also some news that hints at the departure of another world-class talent.
It is being reported that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Andrei-Arshavin-c5771 might just see himself return to the Russian League at the end of the season. The Gunners already rejected a bid from Zenit St Petersburg for the player
recently, but the way things are at the moment, it seems like the team might reconsider the offer from the Russian side, if another bid was made for the player in the summers.
Arshavin has been on the bottom of his form this season and despite being given ample chances to get his mind back in the game, he can't seem to do so. At the same time the player is nearing his
thirties and if an offer around the region of 10 million pounds is made for the player, then it is safe to say that Arsenal might have no option but to let go of the Russian Assassin.
