Wenger to Snatch Obafemi Martins from Newcastle?

By: Trent | June 28th, 2007

Kids, this is why we tell you to always read all of the contracts you sign in their entirety. And I only bring this up because it looks as if Newcastle United seem a little surprised by the super-secret-deluxe “out clause” lurking within the belly that is the beast of striker Obafemi Martins’ contract with the northeastern club.

The bottom line is that if Arsenal want Oba, and Oba wants Arsenal, only a £13 million pound payout stands in the way.

I would prove all of this to you with links, but the program is a bit cranky at this very moment. So until then, just trust me okay? Thanks. You’re always so understanding.

  I don’t know about this. Martins is a good player but he’s got too much baggage.

  obagoaaal,fundly called “wepon of mass destruction”, would be the best thing to happen to Arsenal and football as a whole,since the departure of Henry.

  Arsene Wenger is the man of the people. It shows he listens to advice by signing Martins. He is got the pace like Henry. He is a sharp attacker and finisher. This is the graetest thing to happen to Arsenal.
