Vermaelen agent confident of Gunners deal

Tue, 16 Jun 13:07:33 2009

Thomas Vermaelen's agent is confident a deal to take the Ajax defender to Barclays Premier League giants Arsenal will soon take place.

The 23-year-old Belgian is currently on holiday but agent Sjaak Swart claims he will soon sit down for discussions with the Gunners.

"It's more a question of `when' than one of `if' it will take place," Swart told Ajaxlife.nl.

A £10million fee has reportedly been agreed between the clubs for Vermaelen, who has a contract with Ajax until June 2012.

  1. I havent seen enough of Vermaelen to know if he will­ make a difference but i would suggest if Arsen had a­ weakness when it come to picking players it would be­ central defence. He was lucky when he took the club­ over that we had the best back four in the country.­ Since then he has struggled to find a decent cental­ defender.
