Athletic Bilbao’s midfielder Javi Martinez is one of the players Wenger is most interested in, but the competition will be a harsh one since Barcelona and Manchester United are planning to bid for him.

Wenger knows that his technical skills and creativity will allow him to play successfully in the Premiership, and it is very possible that the Frenchman will place a bid for him, since his number one transfer target Rennes’ Yann M’ Vila had law problems recently, and this makes Arsenal’s manager doubt his character.
The problem Wenger faces is that Javi Martinez seems to be a more expensive choice than M’ Vila...
