Deal Done! PSG accept £45m Arsenal bid for Cavani, Wenger has flown to Paris to seal deal

ARSENAL manager Arsene Wenger has allegedly flown to France to seal a deal for Paris St-Germain striker Edinson Cavani.
Wenger, who has only made one new addition to his squad this summer, is understood to be scouring the market for a world-class centre-forward.
Recently, reports have claimed the Frenchman has lined up Cavani as an alternative to Real Madrid striker Benzema, who publicly ko'd a move to the Emirates last Monday.
And according to Twitter account GestiFuteFifa, which claims to be part of the famous GestiFute agency, Wenger has flown out to Paris to finalise a deal for the Uruguayan striker.

Along with a picture of Wenger on a plane, the account tweeted: "Wenger has flown to Paris to discuss personal terms with Cavani. Deal is very close to being completed."
GestiFuteFifa went on to claim that the Gunners have had a £45m bid for the 28-year-old accepted by PSG.
They added: #Arsenal's payment of £45M for #PSG forward Cavani, is an initial fee of £43M up-front and then £2M in add-ons. #AFC"
GestifuteFIFA's claims regarding the reasons behind Wenger's visit to Paris are highly sensational and more than likely to be false.
The former Monaco chief - 65 - is a regular pundit for sports broadcaster beIN SPORTS, who are covering France's upcoming international friendlies against Portugal and Serbia.

Tottenham’s Dele Alli eyes Premier League debut at Manchester United

It was quite the opening statement. Dele Alli, 24 minutes into his first start in a Tottenham Hotspur shirt, suckered in Luka Modric of Real Madrid, nutmegged him and accelerated away. The 70,000 sell-out crowd at Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena roared at the 19-year-old’s sheer impudence. "We had a laugh about it in the tunnel afterwards; he was very good about it,” Alli said. "He shook my hand and said to me: ‘You little bugger’ – or something like that. I didn’t shout ‘nuts’ when I did it. I used to do that when I was young and get told off for it." As Alli spoke at the Allianz after Tuesday’s 2-0 Audi Cup victory, some of Real’s galácticos filed past. This time last year the midfielder was preparing for MK Dons’ League One season opener against Gillingham. His previous competitive game was for MK against Yeovil in May. Alli says “unreal” and “surreal” on a number of occasions and it is little wonder. This is a young player of conviction. If the nutmeg on one of...
