According to the exclusive news of the Portuguese media cmjornal, Arsenal is using various factors to try to lower the price of signing Cres.
It has been widely reported that Arsenal and Manchester United are two clubs that are interested in signing Yorke, and Manchester United's interest has cooled down at present. Portuguese media said that Arsenal is taking advantage of this and trying to bargain with Portuguese.
In the process of negotiating with Portugal, Arsenal argued that they were the only club in England to be interested in the striker, and demanded a lower transfer price from Portugal on this grounds.
Portuguese's asking price for York is 80 million euros, and the two clubs still have a long way to go in negotiations.
