According to a report from Sports Boom, Newcastle are one of the sides interested in signing Arsenal forward Trossard, with his contract set to expire next summer. It's claimed that the Gunners would be open to negotiations for a fee in the region of £20m-£25m, while the Belgian forward could demand in the region of £130,000-a-week to make the move.
Piero Hincapie joined Arsenal on loan from Bayer Leverkusen last summer, with the Gunners having the option to turn it into a permanent deal at the end of this season. According to Fabrizio Romano, the initial loan agreement was necessary for Arsenal to comply with the Financial Fair Play regulations, and their plan was always to sign the defender full-time.
Speaking to Neville on The Overlap, Van der Sar was asked to name the best manager he played under and chose his former Ajax boss Louis van Gaal. Neville was left stunned by the selection and suggested Ferguson instead, but Van der Sar simply stuck to his pick. Van der Sar played under Van Gaal for eight seasons at Ajax and was part of the squad that lifted the Champions League title in 1994-95.
