From the Grauniad:
"Meanwhile, Vincent Kompany has reportedly let Barcelona know he has no intention of leaving City any time soon. Of course, Barça would be unlikely to be able to afford him anyway. With Spanish banks on the brink of being bust and therefore disinclined to empty money into the pockets of Real Madrid or Barça, Manchester United fancy their chances of competing with that pair for Bayern Munich's versatile 19-year-old David Alaba. Arsenal could gazump the lot of them, but, as ever, it seems that Arsenal are content to know that they can spend big rather than actually do it. So they'll be hoping that Southampton and West Ham don't start getting serious in their pursuit of the Real Madrid reserve striker Joselu, who is also kind of wanted by Arsène Wenger."
