Andrei Arshavin Rumors & News

Arsenal handed transfer windfall as high-earning flops Arshavin, Denilson and Squillaci finally reach end of contracts at Emirates.    

Arsenal have announced that Andrei Arshavin, Denilson and Sebastien Squillaci are all set to leave the club at the end of the month when their contracts expire.
