money money.. or no money?

I read in the internet that Wenger will discover transfer funds for next season.
How much will it be? that is the KEY qquestion.

Wenger will by next week find out what funds he will have available this summer - but he understand throwing money at the Arsenal squad in search of a quick fix is not necessarily the answer.

However, it is believed what is to be made available from the new American owners at Liverpool and Aston Villa, not to mention how much Chelsea will spend looking to wrestle the Barclays Premiership title back from Manchester United. In addition, Man U already targeting three star players to be added if Fergie comments are to be taken seriously.

Maybe if the interests of new Arsenal shareholder Stan Kroenke, with the involvement of the American billionaire is true, we might get some decent cash to buy some big name players. It is also understood that ex-vice-chairman David Dein might also be back if Kroenke has his way.

For the moment, however, Wenger has little choice than to accept what is on offer within the constraints the club operate under, having an on-going commitment to their new 60,000-seater Emirates Stadium.

'Certainly there is money to spend in the summer. How much? Frankly at the moment I do not know. We have to see,' said the Arsenal boss. He added: 'I will be meeting the board at some point next week to discuss the budget.'

Which board will it be? One wonders. However, as a Gunner Fan, as long as it is for the best interest of the club, SHOW us the MONEY!!
