On Sunday, the chief coach of "Arsenal" Arsene Wenger visited the "De Kuip" stadium, where he watched the uneventful match between "Vitesse Arnhem" and the Rotterdam eleven. His appearance sparked numerous speculations and players' claims that A.Wenger intends to acquire them.
The Dutch television channel "Talpa" strongly claims that Arsene Wenger is "extremely serious" about the 23-year-old Egyptian Hossam Ghaly. Another "Feyenoord" player, forward Dirk Kuyt, swears that the Gunners are specifically interested in him. In two seasons, the 25-year-old Dutchman scored 53 goals, including 8 goals this season.
"It really pleased me that such a famous coach as Arsene Wenger didn't hesitate to fly from England to Rotterdam just to see how I play," praised D.Kuyt. "Of course, I would be happy to connect my future with the Arsenal club, but I am not one of those people who give up easily."
Last summer, D.Kuyt, whose value according to the media is reportedly £12 million, was also of interest to the clubs "Liverpool," "Everton," and "Tottenham."
