‘What are they smoking at the Emirates?’ – Arsenal fans rage at decision to sell Ospina for £3m on social media
Fenerbahce struck a deal with Arsenal over the transfer of David Ospina yesterday.
Turkish sports newspaper Fanatik report that the Gunners have accepted a £3 million bid for the Colombian international.
Per the source, Ospina will join on a four-year deal once completing his medical next week.
Ospina has made no secret of his desire to leave in pursuit of first team football but we are talking about an experienced international keeper with two FA Cup trophies under his belt and a wealth of European competition football.
We took a look at how Arsenal fans reacted to reports that Ospina could be leaving for as little as £3 million on social media.

Understandably not everyone was over the moon with the transfer story.
£3m for FA CUP hero #Ospina I can’t believe these.

Why are we letting Ospina go for £3 million? What are they smoking at the Emirates?

Chelski get 10m for begovic and apparently Arsenal will get 3m for Ospina: we really are terrible at transfers, naive even

Chelsea sold Begovic for £10m and Arsenal is here selling Ospina for only £3m. pic.twitter.com/dGM00tMVYU

3 million for Ospina
12 million for Szczesney
Arsenal selling ridiculously cheaply yet again. pic.twitter.com/Ol2Slmz4Hw— Martin Wengrow (@MartinWengrow) June 7, 2017
Seriously, Arsenal signed Ospina for €4m in 2014 and are now selling him for a reported fee of £4m. Awful negotiators.

Not everyone was up in arms about the fee or selling Ospina. After-all he was a second choice keeper with just over 12 months remaining on his contract. If the Gunners do not sell him over the summer he could end up leaving as a free agent.
Genuinely can’t believe our fans are annoyed that we’re only getting £4m for Ospina. He’s shite lol and he’s our second choice keeper.

laughable fee for a laughable – but sometimes brilliant – keeper. Not bothered by anything except Fener’s chump change.

Very important to realise that although his save percentage is high, he has been responsible for some downright howlers in his time with us.

Remember this save?

Or this blunder?
Ospina deserves to be sold because of that. Shocking. pic.twitter.com/N2G1lDXKeK
