Arsenal interest in Barry confirmed
Aston Villa chief Martin O'Neill has confirmed Arsenal have hinted they may enter the race to sign midfielder Gareth Barry, Liverpool have been involved in a long protracted chase of the midfielder but the two clubs are still apart on their valuation of the player.
Bigtips.co.uk is frankly sick of this transfer story and hopefully Arsenal entering the race will speed up the conclusion of it!
The Gunners have been linked with making a move for England international Barry, with right-back Justin Hoyte potentially involved in the deal as part-exchange.
And O'Neill has now revealed Arsene Wenger's assistant manager Pat Rice has intimated Arsenal could be set to step their interest.
"Myself and (first-team coach) Steve Walford both know Arsene Wenger's assistant Pat Rice," O'Neill told The Sun.
"He phoned Steve to ask how the Liverpool thing had gone and said that they might show an interest.
"At the end of the conversation Arsenal said 'that's fine' and that they'll let us know."
