Done Deal: Arsenal midfielder completed permanent exit from club
Young Arsenal midfielder Glen Kamara has moved to Dundee FC on a permanent basis.
The Finnish star joined Arsenal’s academy from Southend back in 2012, and played one first team match for the club.
Arsenal has confirmed that Kamara will be joining Scottish club Dundee FC on a permanent basis. They wished all the best to footballer to his new club: “We would like to thank Glen for his contribution to the club, and wish him well for the future”
Kamara has served Finland at youth level and had two short-term loan agreements at Southend United and Colchester United.
His one first team display for Arsenal came in the 3-0 loss to Sheffield Wednesday in the League Cup back in October 2015.
Kamara is the latest young footballers to leave Arsenal this summer.
Chris Willock, Kaylen Hinds, and Daniel Crowley have already moved Benfica, Wolfsburg and Willem II respectively.
More youth players are expected to leave, as footballers leave for first team chances else where.
Meanwhile, Ozyakup has hinted that he would consider returning to the North Londoners.
“I have plans to play in Europe, I was born in Holland and developed in England at the best academy in the world.
“I trained with the best and wanted to relive my time at Arsenal again. I want to be an ambassador for Turkish football in Europe like Arda Turan.” – Ozyakup claimed in an interview with beIN Sport Turkey
The Turkish star has just 12 months left on his deal and has yet to secure an extension despite stories of a deal being close.
Ozyakup announced today that he would consider a transfer this window.
“I want to play in Europe, I have never made any secret of this.
“However, it would have to be a very good offer to temp our president.
“But I would also be happy to stay at Besiktas and win the league for a third season.” – Ozyakup claimed to speak at an unveiling of the new Besiktas kits.
The latest developments come amid stories that Roma have made a €11 million offer for the 24-year-old according to Sozcu.
Arsenal star Nacho Monreal has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Athletic Bilbao.
Monreal has spent the lats four-and-a-half seasons at the Emirates Stadium, while he played 43 games during the most earlier campaign where he appeared as one of the club’s most consistent footballers.
However, after the transfer of Sead Kolasinac from Schalke 04, he may find himself as the second option at left-back, while Kieran Gibbs and Cohen Bramall are other choices for head coach Arsene Wenger.
As reported by the Don Balon, Bilbao are set to make an approach for the veteran as they look to reinforce defence ahead of the new season.
Monreal is no newcomer to top-league football back in his homeland, with a total of seven years being spent at Osasuna and Malaga.
The 31-year-old still has two seasons left on his current deal. However, he may be permitted to leave the North Londoners if Bilbao meet Arsenal’s asking price.
Meanwhile, Madrid-based outlet AS have suggested that Atletico Madrid have not agreed on a deal for Monaco ace Fabinho. The South American was believed to have agreed to terms to remain at the Ligue One side until January before making a move to Spain.
Atletico have however rejected that any talks have taken place. The player has been linked to a host of clubs, containing Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain in recent weeks.
The 23-year-old moved to the Ligue One champions from Portuguese giants Rio Ave two years ago for around £5m after a two-year loan spell in France. His proposed move to Atletico was valued at approximately €45m or £40m.
The midfielder performed an essential role in Monaco’s league championship success last campaign, as well as helping his team to the Champions League semi-finals. He performed in 55 matches last campaign in all tournament, netting 12 goals and making six assists
Monaco have no desire to offload Thomas Lemar to Arsenal this summer, according to stories in France.
The 21-year-old is one of Arsene Wenger’s top targets, and the North Londoners have already launched three offers for the player.
Arsenal originally tested the water with a £30m offer and followed up with an offer of £40m, which was also rebuffed.
The latest deal on the table is a £50m case, which is made up of a £45m payment plus an extra £5m in add-ons.
However, on Friday, L’Equipe suggested that Monaco vice-president Vadim Vasilyev has no purpose of letting Lemar go, and the situation will only turn if a notable offer is made.
Lemar is believed to be open to moving to Arsenal, and Wenger is keen to push through a deal as soon as possible.
The Gunners have already broken their transfer record with the £52m transfer of Alexandre Lacazette. However it’s likely that the North Londoners will need to go beyond that in order persuade Monaco to offload Lemar.
