Freddie, Sol and Arsène all have 1 year left on their contracts and that is a real concern to me. A story came out yesterday about sol leaving for chelsea and this concerns me. For those who haven't read that story here it is.
Chelsea Chase Sol
CHELSEA want to sign Arsenal's England central defender Sol Campbell.
The Blues have been monitoring Campbell's situation at Highbury as he enters the final year of his contract.
Campbell has been made aware of Chelsea's interest, which intensified during England Euro 2004 campaign.
They want to pair Campbell with John Terry, replicating the central defensive partnership for England forged in the absence of Manchester United's banned Rio Ferdinand.
Arsenal have good cause to be concerned because Chelsea's billionaire owner Roman Abramovich is capable of adding to the player's present salary of £100,000 a week.
Arsenal say Campbell is ready to sign a new deal but one of the main stumbling blocks is the sizeable pay cut Campbell would have to take.
Campbell currently gets a basic £60,000 salary topped up with a further £40,000 a week for completing a Bosman free transfer from Tottenham.
Arsenal have told Campbell his new salary is unlikely to exceed £50,000 a week, while Abramovich is set to offer him £110,000.
