Montpellier have reportedly increased Olivier Giroud's buy-out clause to €16 million (£13.4 million) in a bid to avoid losing the forward on the cheap in the summer.
The France international was heavily linked with a move to Newcastle during the January transfer window but no official approach was made to the Ligue 1 leaders, while Arsenal are also believed to be monitoring his situation closely.
The Toon have since purchased Senegalese striker Papiss Demba Cisse from Freiburg, leaving the Gunners as Giroud's likeliest suitors should a move to the Premier League be his preferred choice.
Montpellier, though, are bracing themselves for concrete offers in the summer and, according to France Football, have now decided to raise Giroud's buy-out clause, which had previously stood at €10m (£8.4m).
The club's president, Louis Nicollin, had previously stated that he would not allow the player, who is under contract until 2014, to leave for anything less than €50m (£42m).
Giroud, who has been capped twice by his country, has hit 16 goals in 22 games for Montpellier in Ligue 1 so far this season.

FFS HazardQuote:

Arsenal have Benfica striker Rodrigo lined up as a possible replacement should Robin van Persie leave The Emirates Stadium. The 20-year-old had a loan spell at Bolton last season.

Udinese are preparing to cash in on highly-rated goalkeeper Samir Handanovic. The 27-year-old Slovenia international was a target for Manchester United before they opted to sign David De Gea in the summer.

Rodrigo was fucking awful at Bolton. Fuck that
Handanovic is a Must Get
I highly doubt he'd choose spuds over the mancs or chavs or city tbh, spuds can't afford his wages that city will give him. IMO he will go to real anyway.Quote:

If Hazard goes to spuds we're screwed. Where do they get all their money from? I hope the big teams start fishing around their star players.
He wont get in their team as it standsQuote:

seems a hard conversation for his agent to have tbh. Reet Eden old son, we have offers from Real Madrid, Barcelona, Internazionale, Juventus, man Citeh, Man Utd and Spurs.
I would recommend you go to Spurs as its not every day you get to play with the likes of Tom Huddlestone and David Bentley
Hazard said "maybe I will go to Tottenham", not that he will. Anyway, there isn't a chance in hell the Spuds could get him without selling players at the same time.Quote:

Are you sure? It's not as if Wenger has ever shied away from tiny players. He's no Mons Pubis in that regard.Quote:

Maybe it's just a myth, I'm having trouble finding quotes. Having Fabregas was no excuse - Fabregas was always going to leave at some point.Quote:

Sure but he'd still have got plenty of games and would just be reaching his prime. Fabregas hardly played for one of those three years as well.Quote:

Modric is fucking ugly.
Fabregas was absolutely pivotal to the way we used to play, arguably the whole team was built around him. You only have to look at this season to know that losing him was always going to be a watershed, a seismic shift in our play-style.Quote:

Well you could argue that he didn't fix the problem areas either in 2008 and if Fabregas was that pivotal then we shouldn't have sold him - we didn't need to and no big club would have done.Quote:

As for the Modric thing, we never needed him, like UTD or Chavs or City thats why none went in for him at the time not just us. Same with Hazard. Were nto the only club to want him, Both mancs do and chavs heck even real and Barca want him, if he goes to spurs says more about them then us.Quote:

Im sure in a month Hazard will tell us he wants to play for pool. as it was only a month ago he wanted to go to chavs.
Then we can look forward to signing hom on loan from some Mexican pub team in 20 years time. . . .Wenger knows :bow:Quote:

The thing I like about him is that he doesn't seem like a disrespectful **** at all.
What.
A.
Dickhead.
Yep rather we got Gotze anyway
With Wenger in charge no top notch player is going to want to come, they've seen what he's achieved and done in the last 6 years and our collapses are a common reason of ridicule around Europe.
You'd have to be a fool to come here with AW here IMO, the guy is a joke and has got nothing going for him these days.
That's the trouble with constant failure and selling your best players, it makes you an unarttractive proposition for top players.
Dream on that isn't going to happen either, not in a month of Sundays, at best it'll be some mickey mouse unknown from France.Quote:
