Felipe Melo's Fiorentina team mate Alberto Gilardino has moved quickly to deny reports he commented that Melo was on his way out of the viola this season and arsenal was a likely destination. After the reports surfaced no longer than an hour Gilardino made this statement.
“I didn’t issue any statement about Felipe [Melo]. From my part, this is totally wrong.”
Despite the denial Melo could yet still move to the emirates as Arsene Wenger has watched him for over three years and obviously knows what he is capable of.
The 25 year old Brazilian is hotly tipped as a perfect addition to the current team and would add the much needed steel to Arsenal's midfield backbone. An addition of Melo's type would send a very positive message for gooner fans next season.
