First Signing? Arsenal ‘Make Official €22m Attacker Bid’ – Report

By on May 26, 2014

Arsenal could be closing in on their first summer signing with reports today claiming that we’ve made an official €22m offer for Real Sociedad winger Antoine Griezmann.

The French international has been touted as a potential signing over the past 12 months and we had an enquiry knocked back during the January transfer window.

Speculation has really  picked up in recent weeks that we’ve renewed our interest and the Metro are now reporting that we’ve tabled a formal €22m bid – which is about £18m.

The newspaper claims that Arsenal are confident Sociedad are ready to sell this summer but with the 23-year-old’s buy-out clause set at nearer €30m, we might have to dig a little deeper if we want to make him our first summer signing.

We’ll also have to battle with Juventus – who are also reportedly interested – but the player is believed to favour a switch to England, which will obviously go in our favour.

Arsene has made a striker, right-back and defensive midfielder his priorities this summer but a pacey wide-man is also understood to be on the agenda and Greizmann would be a superb addition.

He’s just had a great season in La Liga, scoring 16 goals in 36 games, which is an excellent return for a winger and he’s capable of playing anywhere across the front-line so his versatility would be useful.

I’d love to see Greizmann come to Arsenal and hopefully we could try and get a deal tied up before the World Cup, as a star showing in Brazil will only see interest in the player increase.

    Griezmann would be one great signing if the gunners could seal the deal very soon before some other clubs pounces on it

    Much of the transfer this time is media bla bla based. I hate fixedup rumors, @ d end of all this, one side (wenger, or club side concerned) will say there was never a bid made of this player or that player, FINISH. And we see the player in the rival camp. Rubish! Leave transfers 4 club, hungry press!
