Barcelona accept £4M Arsenal bid for Saviola
|
Arsenal are set to clinch Barcelona striker Javier Saviola in a £4 million deal.
The Sun says the Gunners deal will go through this week and the player's agent, Alfredo Cabrera Brizuela, said: "He will make his decision based on football and that points to the Gunners.
"He will have no problem playing in England because he is a world-class player and will be successful in any country.
"This week is very important because he wants to have a holiday knowing he has his future sorted out."
Saviola, 24, still has two years of his Barca deal left but has failed to break into the first team.
He helped Seville to UEFA Cup glory while on loan last season but now wants a permanent move.
