Gunners are gonna Gerv it a go
Posted Saturday, June 25, 2011 by The Sun
ARSENAL expect to clinch a £12million deal for Lille striker Gervinho in the next few days.
Gunners are close to thrashing out a deal with the French club over their Ivory Coast ace.
And boss Arsene Wenger is confident Gervinho, 24, will be at the Emirates for the start of pre-season training on Monday week.
Lille have already rejected £10.5m bids from Arsenal and Tottenham, while Paris St Germain made a late player-plus-cash bid.
But general manager Frederic Pacquet admitted: "Gervinho wants to go to England and as a club we prefer to sell him abroad rather than to one of our rivals in France."
