An awful lot of money has exchanged hands this transfer window.

Manchester United happily parted with £75million to land Romelu Lukaku. Manchester City kissed goodbye to £54million to buy Kyle Walker. Arsenal handed over £52million to sign Alexandre Lacazette and Liverpool said au revoir to £34.3million to bring in Mohamed Salah.

We could go on and on but we're not sure our calculator goes that high, plus, we're confident we've made the point that a lot of money has been spent.

Anyway, like every other club in the world, Serie A side Sampdoria are in the market for some new recruits and, according to Sky Italia, believe Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere could be the answer to their prayers.

Why? Well his Gunners future is all over the shop after he spent last season on loan at Bournemouth, and he may be looking for a brand new challenge.

So they reportedly offered Arsenal some money for the 25-year-old.

At this point the Gunners fans were probably feeling optimistic. Well, Wilshere does play for Arsenal so his stock is high, that's at least £20million straight away.

He's 25, which is a good age for a midfielder, so add another £5million to that.

OK he is injury prone, so knock that £5million off again. But he is English, so add another £50million to the fee. There, he's worth £70million, right?

Wrong. Well, according to Sampdoria he's only worth £6million plus £1.5million in add-ons.

Queue Arsenal fans absolutely losing their minds...
