Young GunsArsenal have confirmed to the BBC they will sign André Santos from Fenerbahçe, subject to a medical and personal terms
Seems like quite a good signing but he aint that good defensively supposedly?
He's solid. Nothing more, nothing less. I'd say as good as Jose Enrique.
:D Not from what Marcotti and co are saying. In fact one Turkish journo said his agent is bloody brilliant for getting him a move out of Turkey.

Skysports.com understands Per Mertesacker has passed a medical and agreed personal terms with Arsenal.The giant Werder Bremen centre-back is in London ahead of what is reportedly a £10million transfer on a three-year contract.Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger turned his attention to Mertesacker, who has entered the final year of his contract in Germany, after deciding Bolton's Gary Cahill was too expensive.The move comes in the wake of Sunday's 8-2 humiliation at Manchester United, which convinced Wenger of the need to strengthen his defence.Mertesacker, 26, has already made 75 appearances for Germany and will therefore bring vast experience with him to Emirates Stadium.Arsenal are also on the brink of signing Brazilian left-back Andre Santos in a £6m move from Fenerbahce ahead of Wednesday's transfer deadline.Earlier on Tuesday, the Premier League club confirmed the signing of South Korea international striker Park Chu-young from Monaco.

Arsenal are preparing to shatter their transfer record by lodging a £25million bid to prise Yann M'Vila from Rennes on deadline day, Goal.com can reveal.The France international is Arsene Wenger's principal target in the last hours of the window and the manager is increasingly confident he can deliver a signing that would be a huge statement of intent.Arsenal have already had a £22m offer for the midfield anchorman rejected but sources have told Goal.com they will make another concerted attempt to sign the 21-year-old.Officials have been locked in negotiations with Rennes today and the two clubs are getting closer to reaching an agreement.Wenger himself was in France, although he will return to London to take training with the non internationals on Wednesday, after Arsenal were given two days off following their 8-2 humiliation at Manchester United.Goal.com understands that M'Vila is the main priority for Arsenal after a whirlwind 24 hours in which they have completed the signing of South Korea captain Park Chu-Young for an initial £3m fee and reached agreements to buy defensive duo Per Mertesacker and Andre Santos for a combined £14.1m. The Germany centre-half and Brazil left-back both underwent medicals on Tuesday and are expected to finalise their moves shortly.Wenger is still in the market for another experienced centre-back, although, as Goal.com revealed earlier on Tuesday, he has cooled his interest in Gary Cahill, Phil Jagielka and Scott Dann.Arsenal have also made an enquiry for Fulham's Clint Dempsey but have not yet opened talks on a possible deal for the player valued at £10m by his club.With the window due to shut by 11pm on Wednesday, sources regard defensive midfield and centre-half signings as more likely. M'Vila is contracted to Rennes until 2015 but Arsenal believe there is a strong will on the player's behalf to follow what is a well trodden path from Ligue 1 to the Emirates Stadium.The French club are believed to be holding out for £30m but Arsenal are hopeful an agreement can be reached on a £25m deal.Wenger has received excellent reports on the qualities of M'Vila and his ability to bring greater steel to a midfield that has been found sorely lacking in that department in their opening three Premier League fixtures of the season.

You man aren't even addressing the positions your weak in properly.Santos, Mertsacker sorry to say are both poor signings in relation top your defence especially the former.Vargas is one of those players who aren't quite good defensively to be a proper sick lb, but not quite good enough attacking wise to be a sick left winger.Saying that there is a lot of full backs like that currently, Boswinga, Evra etc etc.
