Arsenal's deal for Pablo Mari on verge of collapse as Flamengo defender heads back to Brazil

Arsenal's deal for Flamengo defender Pablo Mari is in doubt with the player heading back to Brazil.


Mari arrived in London on Saturday for his medical after Arsenal technical director Edu Gaspar had agreed a deal with Flamengo to sign him on loan with view to a £7.5m transfer.
Edu had travelled with Mari on his flight to Heathrow and did not anticipate any problems.




Arsenal sources say Mari, 26, a former Manchester City centre back, had his medical and was set to sign with friends even congratulating him on his move but a late hitch has seen negotiations stall at the final stage.
A disappointed Mari is now heading back to Rio de Janeiro with Arsenal having to consider new targets.
Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta is preparing his squad to face Bournemouth in the FA Cup tonight but was hopeful of getting much needed reinforcements for his defence.

Corruption in oil industry exaggerated, says Kachikwu

Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr Ibe Kachikwu, said corruption in the oil and gas industry was overblown. Kachikwu said this in Abuja on Thursday at a news briefing shortly after the launch of the new roadmap tagged “The 7 Big Wins”.
