Arsenal may be ready to sell Andrey Arshavin for £15 million

According to the Guardian, Arsenal are ready to let their Russian midfilder Andrey Arshavin go in order to achieve money for new purchases.

It is alleged that the Gunners’ head coach Arsene Wenger is going to make some acquisitions this summer and considers that the team doesn’t need Arshavin that much. Arsenal now want to get back the £15 million paid for Arshvin’s transfer to Zenit in 2009.

Some problems for such transfer may arise due to the player’s high salary, which makes £85,000 per week. Arshavin’s contract expires in 2013.
