In a surprising twist, Reece James has quashed any speculation about his potential move to Arsenal next season, despite his former Chelsea teammate Kai Havertz making the switch. While Chelsea is witnessing a mass exodus of key players to balance the books, including Mason Mount’s move to Manchester United, one daring Gunners fan questioned why James wouldn’t follow suit.
However, the Arsenal enthusiast’s hopes were quickly dashed when James swiftly responded to the suggestion on Twitter. In a witty retort, James wrote, “Reece James to Arsenal. Who says no?” And without hesitation, he emphatically stated, “I say no.”
With five years remaining on his lucrative contract at Chelsea, James is an integral part of Mauricio Pochettino’s rebuilding plans. While Havertz and several other Chelsea teammates have already bid farewell to Stamford Bridge, James remains steadfast in his commitment to the Blues.
Close to James’s heart is the imminent departure of Mason Mount, a fellow academy graduate who is on the verge of completing a staggering £60 million transfer to Manchester United. After Chelsea finally accepted an initial £55 million offer, including a £5 million bonus tied to achievements, the formal announcement of Mount’s move is expected imminently.
Arsenal is having a busy transfer window. They have almost completed 3 signings with Kai Havertz, Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber. Arsenal fans are witnessing an active battle in this year’s transfer market of their beloved team and it is not difficult to understand that sometimes they often have excessive statements. Reece James’ candid answer as an exciting moment when the transfer market is so tense with so much money already spent and so many rumors are confusing fans like crazy.
