“Both of them are likely leaving”

In the news today:

Marouane Chamakh might not be doing the business on the pitch, but it seems he knows quite a lot about happenings off it.

The Moroccan forward has been speaking to L’Equipe and told the French publication: “I think both of them are likely leaving the club. It’s a difficult situation for the manager.

“I don’t think it’s a matter of money for Fabregas or Samir. I think he [Wenger] is looking for their successors and he hasn’t found them. I think before letting them go he wants to find the players to replace them.

“That’s my opinion about the situation. The problem is the season starts this weekend, and it’s even more difficult for us.

“I think in the situation the club was in, they could have let only one leave,” he said. “Especially Cesc, he wants to leave for several seasons because he’s born in Barcelona. But Samir is now in a situation where he has one year left on his contract, so if they don’t sell him this summer he will leave for free at the end of the season.

“Is the club ready to refuse a little bit more than €20m to keep a good player for one season? It’s strange, at a club like Arsenal, that he’s now with one year left on his contract, that the club couldn’t make him sign a new contract before.”

Happen the Moroccan could face a future career as an agent?
