Looks like Inter Milan and #Arsenal have both had bids agreed with Velez for Alvarez. Looks like he will decide this week where he is going

Also Guardian are reporting Arsenal are favourites.

The English papers say Arsenal is the favorite...
Its no surprise then, who the Italian papers claim is the favorite:

Gazzetto Dello Sport wrote:Raffaini is trying to raise the price. A complicated operation for one reason: Ricky Alvarez has chosen Inter. And, for the moment, is not willing to speak with management of other clubs. The player, through his manager, has explained to the Nerazzurri, for a few days, that he feels morally bound to the club of Moratti. But the directors of the Nerazzurri have to be hurry, and maybe raise one million in its final offer (which is around 10 million euros). Plus some bonuses linked to appearances on the field.

so it comes down to te quality of the paper.

guardian vs gazzetto dello sport

which is more reliable?

by Swanhends Mon Jul 04, 2011 4:13 am

both are pretty reputable papers so its anyones guess

italian papers claim it should be done by friday so...we should find out pretty soon

And yet Zamparini still says he's going to Inter...

LOL @ at that man's sources...

It's really anyone's guess where Alvarez will end up...we were close to signing him, So was Arsenal, Napoli, Palermo and Inter. Now it's Malaga, which considering the cash flow they have...isn't that surprising...

I expect PSG to start sniffing around too...followed by Citeh probably...

by BeautifulGame Mon Jul 04, 2011 5:02 am

Either way i think his future will be decided by friday as both the media are saying the same.I hope he ends up at Inter that means Inter wont be interested in Meireles anymore right? (If the rumors had any truth).

Anyway those Meireles rumors has died down in the last few days so they probably were rubbish hopefully.

I think this Malaga report/thread is from June 19.... Zamp said that about Inter in the last few days.

We'll see what happens at the end but Inter have been the most rumored as of late.

Is this about the twitter source? I only posted this tweet because it was retweeted by Phil Mcnulty[BBC cheif football writer].He usually doesnt retweet random rumors.Also the one who originally tweeted this is an Arsenal share holder and seems to have some high credibility about Arsenal related stuff from his tweets.

So felt it isnt a random twitter rumor and posted.Not sure why its a rubbish about this source.
