Wenger given £40m fund to strengthen Arsenal squad
-
Arsène Wenger will be given considerable funds to strengthen Arsenal’s squad this summer and boost the club’s challenge in the Barclays Premiership. Keith Edelman, the managing director, told shareholders on Thursday that a “significant sum” would be made available to the manager for new players in an attempt to improve on their disappointing fourth-place finish this season.
Arsenal have the facility to spend £40 million on players over the course of next season as a result of a loan from Barclays, but such an outlay is unlikely. Wenger is adamant that he needs only one or two more players of “super quality” and is concentrating his efforts on signing Franck Ribéry, the winger, from Marseilles.

If no ribery,buy at least a back up striker for goodness sake. A backup striker that can finish.
