Arsenal’s pursuit of Marquinhos has left Sao Paulo head coach Rogerio Ceni furious and forced him into a change of policy at the club.
It is understood that the Gunners have agreed a fee of around £3million fee for the 19-year-old, who will be unveiled as the first signing of an important window at The Emirates. Marquinhos joins the Premier League giants as ‘one for the future’ and is unlikely to have an immediate impact on the first team.
He will leave the Brazilian giants with two years remaining on his current contract and there is a feeling his exit wasn’t anticipated. Bolavip claim that Marquinhos was in Ceni’s plans for next season and was very angry that he was allowed to leave.
