Arsenal Transfer Update: Gunners Reach Mata Agreement

According to Guillem Balague, a well-known Spanish journalist, who regularly features on TalkSport and Sky Sports, the Gunners have reached an agreement with Valencia, over the signing of Juan Mata and that the fee will be around 22 million euros. Balague, also states that Mata will take over Samir Nasri's position on the left hand side and that Nasri will take over Fabregas's position, who Balague expects to leave to Barcelona this summer.

Various reports in Spain, say that Mata will be unveiled as a Gunner by the end of next week.


I hope it happens.
