ARSENAL CLOSE TO SEEING £8 MILLION DEAL DONE

Arsenal star Gervinho will finalise the deal taking him to Roma this week, according to reports on the TalkSport website

The Ivorian is likely to be sold this summer after failing to win over the fans at the Emirates, with Roma his likely destination.

The Italian side are managed by Rudi Garcia, who was Gervinho’s coach at Lille, and a deal of around £8million is thought to be close to being agreed.

Personal terms are understood to have already been concluded, but Roma are still struggling to finance the deal as they need to sell a player or two before they can get any deal done and dusted.
Gervinho has been close to leaving the Gunners for some time now and this rumour has circulated daily, so I am just hoping that he gets off our wage bill sooner rather than later.
