Little Warrier to become Little Gunner?
ESPN's transfer gossip blog has it, too. I don't know how much I trust a "personal coach in Honduras," given that Najar has been in the States for a few years now, but the rumor is that he'll have a 3 week trial at Arsenal once the MLS season is finished.
I knew we wouldn't have him all that long, but if this is true - and if he sticks - then he'll be gone the day he turns 18. Wow.

Yep. And he’s been here a short enough time that hopefully DCU’s offseason rebuilding won’t require Najar.

This is a move for the future
No way Arsenal is looking to sign Andy this soon. He has zero caps with either national team, and it would be a challenge just to get him a British work permit after playing one season in MLS.

Stouffer tweeted that it's baseless speculation
They call it silly season for a reason. No need to worry about this yet.
dc army & Chest make good points
And they’re probably right. Still kind of impressive that Najar is garnering this kind of speculation – and it’s credible enough to get our attention.
Either way, thanks for the post promotion to the front page.
Gut feeling
I think we get this season and next season to see Najar in a DC shirt before he’s off. The way he’s playing is top-notch for a 17 year old anywhere in the world. The days where you can do this well as a teenager in MLS and scouts everywhere don’t hear about it are gone.
