It is a fact that Arsenal are
desperately in need of a top
class centre - back with Per Mertesacker retiring this summer, and Laurent Koscielny, Mathieu Debuchy and Nacho Monreal also getting on in years, and The Sun is suggesting that Arsene Wenger is lining up a shock bid for the Chelsea

class players that they so
