Fiorentina officials travelled to London yesterday to offer Arsenal £5.5m 
for Fredrik Ljungberg. The Serie A club's director of sport, Pantaleo 
Corvino, and chief executive, Sandro Mencucci, arrived to sign the 
30-year-old Sweden captain, who is wanted by several European clubs after 
two barren seasons in north London.
Ljungberg, under contract until 2009, made only 26 appearances in an 
injury-hit 2006-07 but has recently underlined his commitment to Arsenal. 
Fiorentina are offering a four-year deal worth £1.5m a year - a significant 
pay cut, although it would make him the Italian club's highest earner - and 
are ready to sweeten the deal by also offering Valeri Bojinov, the prolific 
21-year-old Bulgaria striker.
