Posted by Manchester City Football Club are set to make a move for Mikel Arteta.
The Spanish midfielder has been the subject of reported interest from Arsenal lately, although David Moyes insists he will not be selling any of his star players this month.
However, reports in The People claim Mark Hughes is preparing an offer of £12million for the Everton playmaker, who has firmly established himself as a favourite at Goodison Park.
The mega-rich Blues are expected to land at least five big names in January, and after signing Wayne Bridge from Chelsea, they will tempt Arteta with an offer of £75,000-per-week.
this would be a brilliant signing i would love it if we got arteta but i doubt we will or even if they accept the bid he will turn us down cos we ae 2 points of relegation and out of the carling cup by brighton and out of the f.a cup again in the first round by nottingham forest
Instant reaction would be crazy to sell Our teta BUT then he’s probably at his highest value right now and Sheikh City will probably pay more than he’s worth. If they could squeeze £18m out of the Arabs and then use the money to buy Owen and Arshavin then that would be good reinvestment…..let’s hope Mikky stays!!! Jollz
