Arsène Wenger will be given considerable funds to strengthen
Arsenals squad this summer and boost the clubs challenge in the
Barclays Premiership. Keith Edelman, the managing director, told
shareholders on Thursday that a significant sum would be made
available to the manager for new players in an attempt to improve
on their disappointing fourth-place finish this season.
Arsenal have the facility to spend £40 million on players over the
course of next season as a result of a loan from Barclays, but such
an outlay is unlikely. Wenger is adamant that he needs only one or
two more players of super quality and is concentrating his
efforts on signing Franck Ribéry, the winger, from
Marseilles.

wah,40 million is quite a huge sum to sign ribery and Babel.
