      Apparently there has been verbal discussion for weeks. I’m guessing that’s why Arsenal leaked the story, to force the negotiation to speed up.

      I think that any leak of transfer comes from the opposite party/agents. Arteta and Edu try to get things done with as little information leaking as possible. The only one that gets news straight from the club is Ornstein.
