Arsenal close in on Mata move?

Arsenal close in on Mata move?

21 July 2011 - 04:17

Arsenal have stepped up their interest in Valencia midfielder Juan Mata. The news comes after Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola announced that the Catalan giants would be doing everything possible to sign Gunners midfielder Cesc Fabregas.

  • Chelsea want to sign Alejandro Garnacho for £30m?
  • Chelsea agree deal to sign wonderkid for €40m

  • Mata has been linked with a move to the Premiership several times this summer, with Liverpool also linked with a move for the playmaker.



    Arsenal have been linked with a 20m GBP offer for Mata.



    “The possibility exists that Mata will leave the club,” said Valencia coach Unai Emery.



    “We want him to stay and Mata has also expressed his desire to stay at Valencia, but at the same time we cannot stop a player who really wants to leave for money or for a bigger club.



    “So, if there is a large financial offer from any club, that is good for both us and him, we will have to let him leave.”
