Not looking to good for us on this one...might have only be considered should RVP leave but he's young enough and need to have more depth on the forward postiions with Vela, Bendtner and Park gone plus Chamakh is as useful as a tit on a bull http://www.eurosport.fr/football/ligue-2-1/2012-2013/story_sto3378352.shtml GOOGLE TRANSLATE After conducting a trial with Arsenal, the young striker Mbaye Niang Caen visited the facilities of AC Milan, who would also join the promising striker. While he has not played with Caen after two days of Ligue 2, the 17 year old striker Mbaye Niang is still not decided on his future. While England (City Arsenal) holds out his arms, the player would have visited the facility last week for AC Milan. The Lombards may soon make an offer to the Stade Malherbe which requires at least ⬠4 million to let his gem.
I did read somewhere that the sticking point between Arsenal and Caen is how the transfer would be paid.Apparently Caen wanted the full transfer fee whilst Arsenal were only willing to pay in instalments based on performance
You can understand why from both sides on that Cym. Caen waht as much as they can, whilst we are worried on laying out a load of money on potential. You would tyhink the longer this drags on the more likely he will end up at City as they have the bigger warchest to take such a punt.
We dont need him with both afobe and Campbell. Niang as Jamie Sanderson of young guns put it was a luxury signing.
