There's now been confirmation that Giovanni van Bronckhorst
is talking to Arsenal about a possible move. See Reuters report for quotes. Gio says he'll decide by
the end of next week. He mentions other clubs' interest but also says he's always wanted to play in the Premiership, and it's probably fair to say that Bergkamp will have recommended
the Gunners to him.
Bergkamp meanwhile is the subject of speculation on
this Spurs site. It's a clever rumour. We wouldn't be at all surprised to see a striker leave this season. Wenger has said that 4
is enough, and the signing of Jeffers gives us 5 (and that's
not counting the possibililty of youngsters moving up to
appear in the first team squad more often). Add to that the
fact that Bergkamp, although he's always denied stories that he was a Tottenham fan as a kid, admits that he was (and is) a
Glenn Hoddle fan.
But against that there's the fact that the Tottenham fans
are probably trying to cheer themselves up, and worry Arsenal fans, as the possibility of Campbell moving to the Gunners
grows.
And with the Dudek move looking ever more unlikely,
papers are awakenign to the fact that they need to start linking us with every other keeper under the sun again. Richard Wright is the latest, but as this Ipswich site points out,
Town have no need to sell and Wright has recently signed a
new contract. Also, he's unlikely to be happy with playing
second fiddle to Seaman for a season. |
