TRANSFER TALK

Arsenal  Apparently Shkodran Mustafi is training alone at Villarreal  and a teammate has told the press the defender is leaving. Roberto Soriano, who played with him at Sampdoria, told Marca: I came to Spain for Mustafi and now he is going.”

The Gunners were also among the sides scouting Charlton striker Ademola Lookman again last night. He came on as a substitute after 69 minutes of their victory over Shrewsbury.

Monchi is someone many a Spurs fan would like to see at the club, howeverSevilla refused to allow him to leave during the summer when they turned down his resignation and demanded 5 million euros if he went to another club, as they suspected he was doing. Manchester United and PSG were the two clubs mentioned. He is looking to bring 27-year-old forward Benjamin Moukandjo of Lorient to Sevilla.


Wolves - Two Benfica players will be joining Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Championship it seems. Both Jornal de Notícias & O Jogo report this morning that 35-year-old Benfica captain & club legend Luisão isn't being offered a new contract after 13 seasons and winning in total 17 league titles. The Brazilian central defender has been offered £33,269-a-week after tax, £1.73-million-a-year on a 2-year deal. report O Jogo.

Talisca is still negotiating a salary and has a work permit to sort out but the 22-year-old Brazilian attacking midfielder who can also play as a forward will be joining the Midlands club and sees the move as a route to get a move to the Premier League.

Wolves are certainly looking to splash the cash in an effort to get to the Premier League.
