Another one.
Arsenal FC have a reputation of looking to Barcelona youngsters in hopes of discovering a new star for them. The most famous case is Cesc Fàbregas, and in light of that successful project, manager Arséne Wenger still wants to find a new Cesc in Barça's youth system. And he can't take his eyes off one kid.
His name is Sergi Samper. He is an ultra-talented, promising central-midfielder. The 19-year-old had a great start to the season in the Segunda, and many believe it's time to promote him to the first team. Not if Wenger takes him out of there first.
In fact, the French coach is set to make his sixth offer to Barça for the signing of Samper. Wenger wants to buy him out of this contract by paying his €12 million release clause. Sergi's current contract ends in three years, but Barça plan to extend his deal and give him more money, while increasing his buyout fee.
Despite having the Arsenal interest since 2011, when he was just 16, Samper has made it clear to Barça and to Wenger that he doesn't plan to leave his club anytime soon. He knows that Luis Enrique wants to use him in the first team as soon as next season, and many believe he's the next Sergio Busquets. Samper's dream is to play for Barça in the Primera, so he won't give up on his dream to go to the Premier League.
Nice try, Wenger. But chill out and go after someone else.
