GO WITH THE FLO ... Arsenal want MaloudaSUNSPORT’S Arsenal land Andre Santos and close on Florent Malouda.
ARSENE WENGER stormed into the transfer market last night as he launched his rebuilding programme.
First the embattled Arsenal manager had a £6.2million bid accepted for Brazilian left-back Andre Santos.
Then he lined up an £8million move for Chelsea's French midfielder Florent Malouda.
Wenger is desperate to strengthen his squad after Sunday's humiliating 8-2 defeat at Manchester United.
He has also offered £7m for Chelsea's Brazilian centre-back Alex — as revealed in SunSport yesterday — and is keen on his midfield team-mate Yossi Benayoun.
And with the transfer window closing tomorrow night, he has not given up on Bolton defender Gary Cahill.
The deal has been agreed with Turkish side Fenerbahce for Santos, 28, and will be completed subject to a medical.
Alex has proved his pedigree in England while 25-year-old Cahill — rated at £16m by Bolton — is a top Premier League defender.
Malouda, 31, also has years of experience in the top flight.
Chelsea want £10m for Alex, 29, but the Arsenal board believe they can land their man for less.
QPR have joined Blackburn and Norwich in the race to sign Arsenal midfielder Henri Lansbury.
