if rvp really wants to leave arsenal is in a very bad spot, and cant expect more than 15m for him. Keeping an unmotivated player for a year, against his will would be stupied, and would unsettle the lockerroom. it also seems man city is not throwing around money like they used to, and there really is no need for them to do that anymore. they got wc players, and the new finacial fair play rules will take effect.
