I thought it was because there's nobody at the other end to sign Malaga's side, all the major people on their board have quit.
there appear to be varying opinions. That was initially what was supposed to be the case but now theres some confusion. AFCamden was the first one to break news of a spanish european cup winner signing for arsenal while theres a spanish journalist who named cazorla. The journalist claims theres disagreement over the fees.
Rumours that we are looking to raid malaga for a few of their players, we are paying all of Malaga's debt haha.
I can't see how Cazorla could have had a medical had all the contractual issues not have been ironed out.
Apparently we are no longer interested in M'Vila http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/907401-yann-mvila-eyed-for-spurs-transfer-after-arsenal-end-interest I wonder if this is something to do with the Sahin situation
It's weird though, they're two entirely different types of player. Sahin is not a holding player, he's basically a turkish wilshere.
Can't see why Spurs would want him. They have Sandro and Parker. Looking at their squad, their need new forwards badly.

Because he's not guaranteed a start for Citeh, whereas at Utd or Juve, he probably is. If i were him, i would choose Juve, i've heard Turin is supposed to be nice.
Also, as posted somewhere above, he looks set to play for us in that friendly against Koln. So is Cazorla hopefully, and if those two link up brilliantly, then that would be painful as we know that RVP could be off soon after that.
Is it worth using RvP in the friendly though, and risking him picking up an injury? He would be a lot harder to sell if he was injured.
True. But we did play Nasri when he wanted to leave, so it's not like we have not done it before. Leaving him out of the mini-tour of Germany and then citing 'fitness' issues again is going to be laughable, though.
There's a rumour that the squad photo of RVP in this season's kit has been photo shopped from last season'e photo
