Freddie on way out
By PAT SHEEHAN


ARSENAL are ready to let go of fans’ favourite Freddie Ljungberg this summer.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger believes the Swede, 27, is looking at other clubs.

Juventus want the £12million-rated ace and would trade France striker David Trezeguet to get him. Significantly, Ljungberg was not at Spurs on Sunday as the Gunners celebrated clinching the title.

His high-profile, time-consuming commercial work for Calvin Klein has also concerned the Highbury hierarchy.

Wenger has already decided to let go of strikers Francis Jeffers, Sylvain Wiltord and Kanu.

Now Ljungberg has been added to the list — even though a move will dismay Gunners fans, who adore the flamboyant wideman.

Ljungberg joined the club six years ago for £3m from Halmstads and has scored 35 goals in 143 league appearances.

A stunning Euro 2004 performance could seal a move away.

One man staying is Dutch striker Dennis Bergkamp, 34, who has been offered a year’s pay-as-you-play contract.

Another story from the very reliable people at The Sun
But I would love to see him play for us as in my opinion he is Arsenal's 2nd best player after Henry
 
he isnt fit to clean pires boots, let alone play for us.

Got to admit, I'd be a bit worried about the prospect of Trezeguet linkning up with Henry & Pires... :nervous:

more than a tad scary eh?
 
Poor Freddie has not had the best time since leaving Arsenal.

Since joining West Ham then two MLS clubs and finally a Japanese team, he's "on the road again"... South African papers seem to think he will go there to play. I used to think he was a brilliant player while at Arsenal. Injuries severely curtailed him and his attitude since, seems pretty diva-like. Which fits his modeling career... :nervous:

Wenger going to try and outdo Fergie by pulling two of his old players back to the club?

Ljungberg
 
Well it sounds as if he made his money and he's happy to play for another season or two if he's having fun.
 
That was one of the best timings in history for selling a player. Not anywhere near the level he once was already a year after leaving Arsenal.

He's never been the same without Bergkamp,Pires,Henry around him. In the national team during his peak he was always just a good player, not one that stood out.
