Arsenal Manager, Arsene wenger says he is fighting hard to get the best possible deal for his players as two arsenal stars Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez set to begin contract talk in coming week. Wenger while admitting the team will have to spend big, if they are to keep their star players says.
“It’s normal players try to get the maximum out of the negotiations because they only have 10 years at the top level if all goes well,” said Wenger.
“If you were a player you would try the same. You try to earn as much as you can.
“My whole life I fight to get the players paid as much as I can. I want as well to be responsible, to pay them the money we can afford to pay.
“Ideally you do not want players to go into the final year of their deals. They have to feel you meet their needs at the club and they get paid for it. So that is why we negotiate before.”
On Ozil and Sanches, he said
“I think these kind of players can raise a little bit above the financial aspect of the game because they are not poor and they have to look really at the football side,”
“It is more about whether the club can meet their needs on the football front. If ‘yes’ then a Premier League club can find an agreement with the players. We still keep values we have at the club, of course, and we pay what we can afford.”
