I was reading a book about transfers recently and a story about Mikael Silverstre came up. Apparently he was in the middle of his medical at the Etihad and was going to sign for us on a free after leaving the rags. However Wenger called him or his agent and told him he was wanted at Arsenal so he left in the middle of his medical and signed for the gunners instead. Does anyone else have any stories about us being very close to signing a player before them going elsewhere?
