Scottish Mag 3 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 ARSENAL manager Arsene Wenger is ready to offer Newcastle skipper Scott Parker a return to London - by packing Gilberto Silva off in the other direction. Parker has had a torrid time of it of late on Tyneside, with Toon fans jeering him to such an extent that boss Glenn Roeder has had to publicly ask them to lay off. And Brazil star Gilberto would be interested in a move north, because Arsenal are only willing to offer him a one-year extension to his current deal as part of Wenger's over-30s policy. Roeder, on the other hand, would stump up a three-year contract for the 30-year-old World Cup-winner. Londoner Parker joined Newcastle in 2005 in a £6.5million summer switch after failing to establish himself at Stamford Bridge following his dream move from Charlton to Chelsea. His tough-tackling displays soon won him a place in the Toon fans' hearts, but recently they have begun to accuse him of not trying. And Wenger would be willing to part with around £8million - which would include Gilberto - to sign the England international. - Newcastle boss Roeder is keen on Melbourne Victory striker Adrian Leijer, skipper of Australia Under-21s.

Isegrim 10015 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Take 8m, keep Butt and maybe even Emre, and go for some more creative player like Sneijder from Ajax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walliver 0 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 8 million and Gilberto, take their hands off tbh The way I read it it said that the whole deal would be £8m - so more like Gilberto + £5m. Which I'd still take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordieshandy 0 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 What's the source? Because it sounds like a right load of patter. I think it was mentioned in The People, although that might have been copied/ripped/adjusted from this as I'm sure the lad who told me said it would be a straight swap.
