    If he leaves it will be make or break regarding Enrique moving to Arsenal, lets hope they go for Baines instead.

    Manchester City are in discussions with Arsenal over the possible signing of French international defender Gael Clichy, BBC Sport has learned.

    The 25-year-old full-back, who joined the Gunners from French club Cannes in 2003, is out of contract at the Emirates at the end of next season.

    Clichy reportedly told Arsenal he wanted to leave last month, and had been linked with Liverpool and Roma.

    But City have emerged as rivals for his signature and could table a £7m bid.

    Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger faces an anxious time with playmaker Cesc Fabregas again being linked with Barcelona.

    Midfielder Sami Nasri has also been tipped to leave the club, and is thought to be a target for both City and Manchester United.

    The Gunners, who return for pre-season training next week ahead of a tour of Malaysia and China, have been strongly linked with a move for Bolton defender Gary Cahill.

    But Wenger recently claimed that it will be late into pre-season before there is significant movement in the transfer market.

    "We are in a waiting period, everybody is waiting," said the Arsenal boss in an interview with Alsace TV.

    "Everybody has their cards in their hands, hoping for the big transfer. There is nothing moving yet. The period will be more active at the end of July when we will need to really strengthen the team."

    I wonder if they might promote Gibbs instead. Seems they use every excuse to play him, even when Clichy is in good form.

    Arsenal and Bayern Munich are the two teams I really fear will bid for Enrique.

    I wish we'd say "Gibbs or no deal" but we would just let him go I think. Missing a big trick.

    I don't really rate Clichy that highly as a LB and they have Kolarov at City. No doubt Clichy will get offered ridiculous wages as they've been reported to be offering Nasri £ 180,000 per week. Why would anyone want them idiot owners in charge of your club ? If they ****off City wouldn't be able to pay them kind of wages out.

    rolando we'll never sign he'll be off to a champions league team but Welliton i think we'd have a chance of getting him and to be honest he's better than some we've been linked with

    mansare is available for free as well
