Arsenal plan offer for Torino defender Ogbonna

Arsenal are being linked with Torino defender Angelo Ogbonna.

The Mirror says Ogbonna has re-emerged as a transfer target for Arsenal, according to the Italian media.

Arsene Wenger is looking for reinforcements across his defence and 22-year-old Ogbonna - who can play at centre-back or left-back - could be the perfect fit.

The Italian under-21 international, first linked with Arsenal two years ago, received his first call-up to the senior squad last month and would command a fee of around £14m.

No.. my small-minded friend, the sad thing is you eat whatever the MEDIA feeds you like candy. You're like a kid dude. Plus, if a player wants to leave, what has that got to do with Wenger or Arsenal? Its the player's own decision. Arsenal have done well to keep Cesc from the vultures of Barcelona who have been stealing arsenal superstars from the 90s. But everytime that happens, Arsenal grew better. Arsenal only became thrifty and struggle slightly in the transfer market after the completion of the new stadium. Arsenal can only do so much. Kid, please get out of your parents home.
