Nasri, Guiza and all the other targets

Just when you thought you couldn't stomach another blog / post or even the Telegraph telling you we have signed this and that player, along comes this one, but with a difference ! I have it on good authority, that while Arsene is currently on holiday and working at the Euro's nothing will be signed until he returns. My contact actually said, " lets hope france go out early and that Nasri doesn't score goal of the competition ! " The Fact is, with the international commitments and teams not releasing their players while they are involved in a major competition, no player will be allowed to go off and sign for a new team until after the Euro's are over. Now, the whole story of Guiza is complete rubbish, he was scouted over the past few months after the Eduardo injury and that at the time Eduardo wasn't expected to return or play until well into the new year. Well according to recent reports that is changing, but I am told the Arsenal medical staff haven't had a good look at him and Arsene will leave it very late into July - August to decide if he needs to strengthen his strike force. Infact the most frustrating thing about the whole summer is when will we sign a player, I am told, its going to be a long summer of wait and see, more players will come in July in time for pre-season and depending on how complex the deal it might not be until August. With Hleb looking like he will go, that is depending on who comes in. The whole Reuben de la Red story has come from spain reports because Madrid wants Hleb and Reuben has been offered as part of the deal. I am told Hleb likes his italian icecream though and is waiting on Mourinho to make an offer. more later AM
