[football] Barcelona Signing Arsenal Defender Eboue


Barcelona are going to sign Arsenal defender Emanuel Eboue, if the rumours are to be believed. The Blaugranas are goin to pay around 8 to 10 million euros for the the player from Ivory Coast. It is believed that Barcelona are signing him as a back up for Dany Alves so that Puyol can concentrate on his central defending role better. The failure to sign either Bruno Alves or Dmitry Chygrinsky might have forced the Catalan club to go for Eboue.
They are already in news for their target of Arsenal's Sapnish midfielder Cesc Fabregas and both the teams seem to be rigid in their stand not to leave Cesc. Arsenal are said to put a cost of 45 millions while Barcelona are ready to pay 30 millions for their own youth product who left for the Gunners six years ago.
