Ivorian international Emmanuel Eboue is wanted by several clubs in Spain as well as by Serie A side Fiorentina, according to his agent. The versatile right-sided wing-back joined Arsenal in 2005 from Belgian side Beveren and has split the Emirates faithful into two distinct camps. Vilified for poor passing performances and his inclination to hit the turf too easily by some portions of the north London side’s fanbase, his adventurous wing-play and goal-scoring spurts have seen him hailed as a cult hero by others. Understood to be settled under Arsene Wenger’s tutelage, Eboue is not thought to be seeking a move, but with options for him to consider his representative made clear that nothing could be ruled out.
“We will talk to Arsenal over the next few days, he is settled in London, but we’ll have to see,” the representative told fiorentina.it.
“It’s not just Fiorentina after him, but there are also Spanish teams. There are no other news at the moment, we will know more in the coming days.”
