- Bruno G has directly told Eddie Howe he wants to join the English Champions

For those interested in the French category of Express Entry for permanent residence in Canada. Take note of these two important things:
1) You still need at least one year of full-time paid work experience (or equivalent in part- time) to get into the Express Entry Pool. The one-year can be any eligible TEER 0, 1, 2, or 3 job (done within the last 10 years). It can also be a job done in Canada or any country. (And of course that you were regularly paid for).
Read the FREE guide at https://t.co/Dy9BeZLQSL if you don't know what TEER and eligible jobs are.
2) Your French Language Test (TEF or TCF) score must be at least a CLB 7 (NCLC Level 7). Many people have said TCF is better. See the TCF conversion below.
Addendum
If you have English Language Ability, you can still write IELTS/CELPIP/PTE in addition to the French Test. This will give you more points as a bilingual candidate. This is optional (to get more points).
All the best.
Selling Leo was the first step. Cult Hero.
Opens up a clear slot at LW. Both Rogers and Barcola files are being worked on simultaneously.
Still no official club to club talks but both players very open to a move. Classic Berta.
As far as I am aware this is what has been going on. Arsenal were interested in Fernandes / Tonali / Pablo Barrios (exclusive). When Tonali was offered to us at the end of January, it peaked everyone's interest at the club. Berta kept in contact as did City. It became clear the deal was not feasible due to Newcastle wanting £85m or even more. To further add, the agent fees are incroyable. Barrios was not available for several reasons. Fernandes is heavily involved with Jorge Mendes and it became quickly apparent that there would be a bidding war at a minimum of £85m. It has now even been stated, 'whoever pays the most can have him'.
Berta then made contact multiple times to explore the situation of Alex Scott, the interest is real and there was a feeling a potential bargain could be secured around £65m. Bournemouth began to panic while Alex Scott was out in the USA with the England pre camp and want to rush to secure a renewal for Scott with a possible release clause. Their stance currently is he is not for sale at any price.
Is it becoming apparent we have approximated budget for the midfielder? (Investing in other areas)
As for Bruno G let me clarify… Berta made contact with his camp via Kia. A loose offer below £60m was floated to Newcastle via these middle men to understand their appetite for any deal. Newcastle say he is not for sale. Kia being involved is something you must keep an eye on for reasons every Arsenal fan should be aware of. When an offer is serious, it is officially submitted to the club hence me saying Newcastle have had no contact yet from Arsenal as of 9am. Newcastle will not lose both of their midfielders, so maybe Berta tried a cheeky offer before the Tonali deal has gone through. Until a serious offer is presented or our budget changes, we wait.
Arsenal have contacted the likes of Bouaddi / Kone and others I don’t want to discuss yet but no one else is providing these step by step updates and its incredibly exhausting. Personally think Bouaddi or Bruno would be incredible.
