REPORT Saudi Arabia clubs are set to hand Arsenal a ‘crazy huge bid’ after a whopping ‘extraordinary’ sum of over $100M was offered to Arsenal in exchange for 25-years old Mikel Arteta’s weapon ahead of January summer transfer
While supporters of Arsenal excitedly await the arrival of new players in January, there are also talks about certain players perhaps leaving the team.
Emile Smith Rowe, who could be very important in tomorrow’s game, has been linked to leaving in January on multiple occasions. In addition, several teams are showing interest in Aaron Ramsdale, who was demoted by Arteta from his starting spot.
The Athletic just revealed that Saudi Pro League teams are still interested in Arsenal’s Gabriel Magalhaes. Arsenal may see disruptions as a result of this possible departure. Fans can rest easy knowing, though, that any deal would need a “extraordinary” offer—likely more than £100 million—given Magalhaes’ crucial contribution to Arsenal’s championship run.
Even though possible exits are the main topic of discussion, Arsenal is also looking into ways to bolster their defence. They are really interested in a defender that is frequently likened to Virgil van Dijk. Nonetheless, given that teams are typically hesitant to part with their finest players in the middle of the season, a more practical choice could be to loan out to a target that becomes available in January.
For Arteta and Edu Gaspar, finding the ideal balance in January business is essential. While building up the team is crucial, maintaining the carefully calibrated balance is just as vital. Luckily, following their January international commitments, the team is ready to welcome back important players like Takehiro Tomiyasu and Thomas Partey.
Arsenal will need to make calculated choices during the impending transfer window to maintain the strength and competitiveness of the team without jeopardising its existing cohesiveness.
