Five notable players linked with a summer move to Arsenal
Arsenal finished out of a top four place for the first time since 1995-96 season, a result which means they will play their European football in the 2nd tier category (Europa League) next season.
Arsene Wenger, Alexis Sanchez, and Mesut Ozil’s future remain a big issue as the crisis in the London club intensifies. Despite some section of Arsenal fans calling for Wenger to vacate his position quite a number of players have been linked with a summer move to Arsenal.
- Alexandre Lacazette
The 25-year-old has been repeatedly linked with a move to Arsenal but reports are suggesting the Frenchman is on his way to joining the other Madrid giants, Atletico Madrid.
The Lyon striker who scored 28 league goals in 30 games will be a huge boost for Arsenal if they could get him and he would be a big upgrade to ‘at most 16-goal a season Olivier Giroud’.
2. Kylian Mbappe
The Monaco teen sensation who took the whole of Europe by storm breaking records upon records is another French striker linked with a move to Arsenal.
Kylian Mbappe whose record 15 goals tally by a teenager helped Monaco secured their first French Ligue title since 2000 as caught the attention of top European clubs with Liverpool, Real Madrid already reportedly tabled offers well over 70million pounds for the youngster.
3. Sebastien Corchia
Lille full-back is another name linked with Arsenal and the France international has been touted as a potential replacement for Nacho Monreal.
The versatile defender could be a useful addition to the gunners as he could play either of the wing-back positions.
4. Riyad Mahrez
The reigning African Footballer of the year was linked to a move to Arsenal last season and again reports are suggesting he might be on his way to the London outfit.
Nothing official has been placed on a player who interests PSG and also recently sparked a rumour move to Chelsea after calling the 2016-17 Premier League champions “a real club”.
5. Amine Harit
Nantes 19-year-old midfielder, Harit has appeared on the back pages as a potential target for Arsene Wenger this summer.
The French teenager starred for Nantes as they finished 7th in the French Ligue one table this just concluded season. He played a total of 30 games for The Canaries.
With Arsenal out of Champions League football and the uncertainties surrendering Wenger’s future, do you think any of these players will join Arsenal this summer.?
