Draxler said to be injured and his return table was in March...  Now Doctor cleared him to play next week.  If signed his debut willl be against Liverpool next week.

And Draxler deal fall thru... Arsenal didn't feel like paying £40m for 20 year old.

Schalke just had a conference and stated Draxler will be with the club until summer.

 

Holtby may go out on loan to Fulham.

 

Liverpool in for Konoplyanka and Ayre has flown out to get the deal done. Naturally, upon hearing this, Tottenham booked a last minute flight a few seats ahead of where Ayre is sitting in order to get off the plane first.

Draxler wants out, Schalke wants close to £40m... Unreal fee for 20 year old.

Yahoo reports that Arsenal is still negotiating with Schalke over Draxler even tho negotiations are not progressing very well.  Draxler wants out, Schalke wants crazy money and all upfront... no bonuses, nothing... straight cash. I think Arsenal knows that Schalke is in financial trouble and they have to sale...   It will be interesting next 24 hours.

Straight cash, homie.

 

Looks like these two teams may play chicken right up to the deadline.

Yep, that's exactly what is. Arsenal did that with Madrid for Ozil and barely made it.

Although pretty funny how you put it here, I've not heard a peep about this kid on any of the rumor sites. If he's on our radar, he's well under the public one.

Obviously, it's all just rumors. But it surfaced yesterday that a rival Prem club was in for Kono, and most places understood that was Tottenham. Who knows though.

Lol.

[Ja Rhule]

Schalke wants all money in cash upfront. Usually teams make payments. But I am still shocked, poor Draxler.

Lol, arsenal signing 31 year old midfielder Killstrom from Russian club. What a downgrade from Draxler. Wow... That is it for Arsenal hope to win any trophies this year... No striker and 5 midfielders either hurt or suspended and Arsene gets 31 year old from a shitty league. Arsenal fans are devastated by lack of ambition from the club.

I swear, I feel bad for Arsenal fans. Arsene used to lack any backing from management when they were trying to eliminate debt. Now he has financial support and he makes this sort of decision? Weird.
