Arsenal midfielder wanted by Olympiakos

Another transfer window, another Arsenal midfielder being linked with a move away from the club, and again it’s Tomas Rosicky.

It’s believed Greek champions Olympiakos are preparing an offer for the Czech international during the January transfer window.

In my opinion, it will be a strange decision for Arsene Wenger to let the 31-year-old leave, as it will leave us short of options in midfield, at least until Jack Wilshere and Abou Diaby are back fit. I for one would be very surprised to see Rosicky go in January, but think he will be more than likely leave during the summer.

Rosicky’s Arsenal career has been plagued by injuries since his arrival back in 2006, where he missed almost 18 months due to a hamstring tendon injury. Despite his technical ability, Rosicky is considered a bit-part player at the club after falling behind the likes of Song, Arteta, Ramsey and Wilshere in the pecking order.

Olympiakos will face stern competition from Wolfsburg for his signature though, as the German outfit have already expressed an interest in the ageing midfielder in recent weeks.

    I’m not sure about rosicky to be honest. Sometimes he looks like a good back up player with good quality and a lot of experience then sometimes he looks like all the other deadwood we’ve got a the club, completely average and not arsenal quality!

    If we did get a decent bid I’d be inclined to let him go

    keep him! he’s been great when called upon and he brings a toughness and selflessness that is so admirable to the team. great leader. hopefully rosicky wants to stay.
