Wenger Admits Alex Song Could Follow Robin van Persie Out of Arsenal: The Daily EPL

In his Friday morning press conference ahead of Arsenal’s opening match of the Premier League season, manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that Arsenal could lose another star player — Alex Song, this time, who could move to Barcelona before the summer transfer window comes to a close.

Losing Robin van Persie is one thing, but losing a central cog in midfield would be another blow for Arsenal. To make matters worse, Wenger has also said that the club has already spent the money Arsenal has received from the van Persie transfer, so don’t expect any more major signings between now and the end of this month.
