Transfer Rumblings
Lots of stuff rumoured to be happening at the moment. Here's an attempt to condense it all.....
Transfer of Jerzy Dudek to Arsenal still on, transfer fee being negotiated, Giovanni Van Bronkhurst apparently also on his way to Highbury. The Dutch international was going to Chelsea but they were unwilling to pay �10m, Arsenal were more ready to offer that kind of cash - probably as a 'singal' to Vieira that they're serious.
Francis Jeffers has refused his new contract offer from Everton - front runners to sign the highly rated player are... you guessed it, Arsenal. Sunderland and Middlesborough have also been keeping an eye on developments and will no doubt join the race for the striker.
Now Sol won't be there much longer Spuds are after wantaway Villa defender Gareth Southgate, an asking price of around �6m is likely to be met by the clubs new owners ENIC.
