Yann M’Vila’s French club, Rennes, are just about resigned to losing their 22-year old midfielder. The general manager of the club has spoken to the French radio station RMC.
“For the moment there are three offers. There is no agreement. We enter negotiations this week and hope to find a solution.”
The reason I think that Arsenal are in the best position to land the Frenchman is that, like Nuri Sahin, the player has expressed a preference for the Gunners. Wenger and his ability to improve young talent is famous, especially in his native France. M’Vila has talked about his wish to play in the Premier league and the Champion’s league, so that narrows the field down a bit.
The two clubs other than Arsenal that are trying to sign M’Vila are Tottenham and Zenit St. Petersburg from Russia. Scouts from both teams were at Bordeaux on Sunday where Rennes played their first game of the season. This goes against Spurs’ claim that they had given up on M’Vila because he is too defensive. Arsenal scouts were not there and this could signify a few things.
It could be true that Wenger is no longer trying to sign the player. He could be fully aware of M’Vila’s abilities and have no need to see him again. Or, more likely in my opinion, he is feigning disinterest to ensure that Arsenal get as good a deal as possible. Rennes are still pushing for nearly £16 million for M’Vila.
Zenit are in the champion’s league and Tottenham are in the Premier league, but Arsenal are in both. So the only thing stopping Arsenal from signing M’Vila is themselves. Will he be a Gunner this season?



Pls arsene wenger shuld 4get sahin and bring in Yann M’villa,he posses d qualities we nid in a defensive midfield.he iz unlike song who leaves his position..
I tink dt wit him we wont conced more goals
Let’s hope, we need a natural DM.
M’villa is worth been at Emirates lets wenger sacrifice that $15m ad in near future he will b worth $28m…..Nuri sahin and Fernando Liorente we need them to before thursday.
Arsene Wenger should do all he can do τ̲̅ȍ sign m’villa cos ωξ’re short ☀̤̣̈̇f defensive midfielder so ℓ̊ think he should sign him and Sahin and Llorente so dat ωξ can в̍̍̍̍̊ε̲̣̣̣̥ EveryTin equiped I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ all areas…….. Shola.
We Should Buy quality and fantastict players like M’VILLA in the long run for the club.the most crusual way of maintaning players within the club should be adresed properly.
We seriously need a quality player that can replace song and i think m’villa is the right man.
arsen should also think about cover in defence maybe bastos from lyon to cover bakery sanga after all sanga is our no.1 right back jenkingson is just not good enough for us!Llorente is a must as he is avalable and in the same situation as rvp was. arsen should deffinatly snap up yann m villa,Llorente,maybe sahin and micheal bastos. but most definatly rvp has to be replaced. i wish we could make henry 10 years younger what a ledgend.
Pls asene wenger’ shuld do us a favour by signin m-villa, sahin and lorente, den give out bethner 4 mexes.
yes we should sign M’villa n also sahin so that our squard
will b perfect in dis season…
