ARSENE WENGER is ready to make a £6million raid for PSV Eindhoven starlet Ibrahim Afellay.
The Arsenal boss has been impressed by the 22-year-old, who can play anywhere in midfield.

This Dutch international midfielder could well be a very useful addition to the Arsenal squad especially if Tomáš Rosický continues to be sidelined. Although only 22 Ibrahim has a wealth of experience and has four Eredivisie titles to his name and a fair amount of Champions League playing time so this capture could allay worries that many have about this being yet another young signing who will take a while to bed in. He has the touch and vision that suits the Emirates side and if he can be snared for just 6m then Arsene will have done well. Do Gunners fans believe that Afellay could add something to the current squad or should they be aiming to fill other positions on the park?
