Writing in his exclusive CaughtOffside column , Romano explained that Edu had a key role in making sure the Gunners were able to get in first and get this deal done, with Marquinhos ending up joining for just €3.5million in what now looks like a real bargain. “Marquinhos scored his first Arsenal goal this week in the Europa League following his €3.5m move to the Emirates Stadium in the summer.
In my view, this could end up being a smart piece of business and a real bargain,” Romano said. “Wolves wanted Marquinhos too, but Arsenal have been faster thanks to Edu’s relationship with Sao Paulo.
Arsenal are convinced he’s a top talent for present and future, and for sure the club will keep following the Brazilian market as Edu has great relationships there.” The 19-year-old winger looks a superb talent and could have a big future at the Emirates Stadium, and he got a chance to show his potential earlier this week as he scored in the club’s Europa League win over FC Zurich.
Arsenal have had some similar success to this in the past with the signing of Gabriel Martinelli a few years ago, and Gooners will hope Marquinhos can follow in his footsteps by developing into a first-team regular who can make an impact in the biggest matches.
We had him before arsenal but they paid a few backhanded and maybe bribes to get him, we had an agreement in place that I believe arsenal knew about but being the club they are went about signing him anyway, arsenal have always dealer in the gutter.
Don’t forget to use the pain numbing cream.
Have you any left after the United match then?
You wanted him for free scavenger.
Seems you only pay money for Portuguese players.
Cry more pal The alternative was a crime-infested slum in the Midlands watched by low IQ retards such as yourself ‘such as you’ would be the correct use of the English language, fat boy.
Then again, you do support a club based in a crime-infested area of London, so quite understandable.
He simply came to Arsenal because they are a far bigger club than Wolves!
Not that big when they play the real “big” clubs though eh!3-1,3-1,3-1 You wanted him for free scavenger.
Seems you only pay money for Portuguese players.
Arsenal are so big that despite using the relentless and ongoing unsettling tactics of the London media Neves and Nero are still with little old Wolves.
When they go they probably want a seriously big club who conduct themselves properly and want to pay the going rate.
Who the F is Nero?Billy Bunter i see the IQ standard is high in your end of Londaan.
