It would be no surprise if Arsenal were to let Nwankwo Kanu go this summer and the Sunday People reckon that our Nigerian striker is on his way to Spain.
The People say that Valencia and Real Betis are ready to pay around £5 million should Arsenal decide to sell.
The same paper claim that there will be a few more departures from Highbury in the close season and are confident that Jerome Thomas's loan move to QPR will be made permanent.
The News of the World can't find any big names to link us with but they do say that we've been watching Oxford youngster Jamie Brooks. Brooks has scored 10 goals in 27 appearances for the Us this season. They're also linking us with a permanent move for Reading keeper Jamie Ashdown who is already on loan at Highbury.
The same paper says that Patrick Vieira will keep Arsenal waiting until after the World Cup before making a decision on his future. The News of the World says that Arsenal have offered Vieira a one year extension to his current deal which expires in 2004, but that Vieria considers the offer "derisory"
Finally both The Sunday Mirror and The Sunday Express say that Frank De Boer is headed for Highbury. The Dutch international can't agree a new deal with Barcelona and Arsenal are rumoured to be ready to step in should negotiations break down completely.
