Stan Kroenke will hand over a massive £100 million warchest for Arsene Wenger to utilize during the summer transfer window, according to the Telegraph.
It is thought Kroenke remains adamant that Wenger is still the right man to lead the Gunners for years to come and has put his faith in the Frenchman by entrusting him with the greatest transfer budget in the club’s history.
Wenger’s contract at the Emirates is set to expire at the end of the season but many believe he will remain at the club for the foreseeable future, and although his grip of the Premier League title has loosened in recent weeks and now faces an all too familiar situation by attaining a top four finish instead, Kroenke’s trust in Wenger is undeterred – even though some of the Arsenal faithful believe his time is up.
While £100 million in transfer funds doesn’t exactly seem a huge amount, Wenger can acquire a number of players with it, if history is anything to go by.
So if reports are too be believed and Wenger continues his reign at Arsenal beyond the summer and is indeed handed £100 million to splash out on in players – who should the Frenchman look to bring in and why?
Let us know below what your summer shopping list would be if you were in Wenger’s shoes
Don’t forget to include the wages in that calculation boys
Costa 35 mil or cavani 35 mil + giroud
Bender or khedira 25 mil
new sagna contract / coleman 10 mil
reus/ di maria / pedro or isco 30 mil
sell bentner, park, monreal, arteta, miyiachi, diaby to help cover the cost of wages
Give it right back.
Draxler/morata-bendtner+30m
sagna new contract
if possible bring back fabregas-42.6m
With £100m, i will make sure i sign diego coster no matter how much he is worth. i will get a young center back to back up for per and Laurent. then buy a proper defensive midfielder. i wont even need to spend all the money. but i will sell a lot of dead woods though.
Give Diaby a pay rise? Seriously does anyone think Wenger will spend 100m? It’s laughable.
buy costa or cavan. Bender or godogon. Lues or dexter. Colaman or pizac
Definitely a top class striker. Giroud simply misses too many gilt edged opportunities. A striker in the mould of a Suarez or an Aguero who can make the most of Ozil’s woinderful passing range. Now that would be something to behold next season!!
Draxler
Bender
Remy
With 1 years wages included.
Extend all 1st team contracts excluding park, diaby and bendtner
pato , banega. remy cabella and eliaquim mangala
