Arsenal remain in talks with Shkodran Mustafi, but the defender’s agent has denied claims than agreement has been reached.They don't even read the copy before it's publishedMustafi’s agent, Ali Bulut, told Spox.com: “Skhodran and Arsenal are in agreement. Now the clubs just have to agree a transfer fee.”
Not sure that's true.However, the player’s father, Kujitim, has denied that any agreement has been reached.
Bulut then took to German publication Kicker to clarify the situation.
“There are discussions but there’s no agreement between Mustafi and Arsenal, or between both clubs,” he said.
Just wait until it's revealed on Pravda.
Mustafi snr has chipped in to say that this guy isn't even his sons agent
The media
I think Wenger's realised that he can get him cheaper if he gets him in January. Or even cheaper if he waits for his contract to run out. Or even cheaper if he doesn't buy him at all! Wenger knows
So yeah I imagine Valencia will have risen the price by 5 million after today.
Today i have read in german newspaper, that Valencia forbid Mustafi to sign for Arsenal and that there are no more negotiations. The Story goes on..and on...and on
No idea what is going on with this deal?
At a guess we have spent two months trying to drive down his initial valuation price only for them to turn round and say "Fuck You, 50 million take it or leave it".
I've been reading that Barca are deep into negotiations with them over Paco Alcacer, if they sell him for the reported 30 million Euros then they meet their FFP quota and have no need to sell Mustafi or at least not at the initial 25 million Euro valuation they set.
