Vrijeme je za poslove “na crtu”
It’s been a very quiet transfer window so far for Mikel Arteta, with Arsenal only managing to secure Riccardo Calafiori’s signing, as well as making David Raya’s loan move permanent.
Postakavljeno je vrlo tiho tržište transfera za Mikel Artetu, pri čemu je Arsenal uspio samo osigurati potpis Riccarda Calafiorija, i učiniti Davidu Rayi stalni transfer iznajmljivanja.
There’s a school of thought that, in fact, there were only ever one or two tweaks that needed to be made this summer, given the strength of the squad already.
Postoji mišljenje da su zapravo potrebni samo jedan ili dva sitna prilagođavanja ovog ljeta, s obzirom na veću snagu trenutnog tima.
That’s as maybe, however, there’s clearly at least one more signing that the Spaniard wants to make before the transfer window closes in a couple of weeks time.
Možda je tako, međutim, jasno je da Mikel Arteta želi barem još jedan potpis prije zatvaranja tržišta u naredne dvije sedmice.
The North Londoners have been tracking Real Sociedad’s midfielder, Mikel Merino, for some while now, but a deal to suit all parties hasn’t yet been forthcoming.
Tim iz sjevernog Londona prati vezista Real Sociedada, Mikela Merina, već neko vrijeme, ali još uvijek nije postignut dogovor koji bi odgovarao svim stranama.
Pretpostavlja se da bi igrač pristao na prelazak u Arsenal, iako je nakon sjajnog Europskog prvenstva sa Španjolskom očigledno da mu je vrijednost porasla.
According to The Times (subscription required), his current club have also turned down a bid from Arsenal, throwing the transfer Gunners plans into chaos on the eve of the new season.
Prema The Timesu (potrebna pretplata), njegov trenutni klub je također odbio ponudu Arsenala, bacajući planove Gunnersa za transfere u kaosu pred početak nove sezone.
With two weeks left of the transfer window to go, there’s still plenty of time for a deal to be constructed and got over the line, however, it suits no one for talks to still be ongoing right until the last knockings this summer.
S dvije sedmice preostalog vremena na tržištu transfera, još uvijek postoji dovoljno vremena da se dogovor postigne i sprovede, međutim, nikome ne odgovara da pregovori traju do samog kraja ovog ljeta.
There’s some degree of certainty to a move taking place at some point, albeit La Real are well within their rights to hold out for top dollar in negotiations.
Postoji nekakva sigurnost da će se prelazak dogoditi u nekom trenutku, iako je La Real u pravu da traži maksimalnu vrijednost u pregovorima.
When and if Arteta finally gets his man, it will add the strength in depth that the Spaniard and all Arsenal fans will hope will be the difference in finally overhauling Man City at the English top-flight summit.
Kada, ukoliko Arteta napokon dovede svog čovjeka, to će dodati dubinu snage koju će Španjolac i svi navijači Arsenala nadati se da će biti presudna razlika u konačnom preuzimanju Man Citya na samom vrhu engleske lige.
