Arsenal Hold Talks to terror 52 million pounds sterling “superstar”

A little over a month ago until the transfer window slams, and so far, arsenal fans have had a lot to cry.

Mikel Arteta and Co quickly announced the signatures of Christian Norgaard, Martin Zubengdi, Noni Madueke and Kepa Arrizabalaga.

They are not finished there, however, because the Spanish defender Crinthian Mosquera has already been represented in the club’s training kit, and the discussions for Viktor Gyokerres seem to be in the last stages.

In addition, the finalists of the Premier League were also linked to Ebelechi Eze, although, on the basis of reports, they can now be after another international which would be an even better signature.

Arsenal Target Eze upgrade

This summer has not been the first time that Arsenal has been linked to Eze, because you just have to look back last summer to see stories praising the star of Crystal Palace for a return to the club which released him as a child.

However, it would be just to say that this year’s stories felt more concrete, some saying that talks had taken place with the player’s camp and that personal conditions had been agreed.

However, in the state that things, the links seem to have calmed down a little, and as far as we can say, no agreement has been concluded with the South Londoners, who still want the complete liberation clause to 68 million pounds sterling in English sells it.

However, fans should not worry about missing a talented midfielder, because it now seems that they could pay their attention to another, someone who would be a better signature than Eze.

It was at least according to Arsenal Insider Hand d’Arsenal, who revealed that the club had been in contact with the agent of Xavi Simons, Ali Barat, who offered them the possibility of signing Dutch talent.

This news align with reports earlier this month, which said that the Gunners were interested in the RB Leipzig star, which could be available for around 52 million pounds sterling.

Although this may be a complicated and expensive transfer to overcome the line, it is an arsenal should continue, because Simons is already a brilliant player who could still improve, and someone who would be a better acquisition than Eze.

Why Simons would be a better signature than Eze

Thus, the first reason for which Arsenal would be wise to sign Simons on Eze this summer is that when we take a look under the hood, to their underlying numbers, the Leipzig Ace comes out in the lead.

It is not even a narrow comparison, because in practically all relevant metrics, the old jewel of Paris Saint-Germain occurs in the lead, demonstrating exactly why some in the game think that it is “one of the best 10 in the world”.

These figures show that not only is the Dutchman a more creative force for his team, but also someone capable of contributing more with regard to the less glamorous defensive side, that we know how to be a beloved trait of Arteta.

The second reason why the Finalist of the Premier League should sign the original AS of Amsterdam is that he is even more versatile positioningly than the star of the Eagles, being able to play on the whole front line as well as in the ten.

Finally, the “superstar”, as described by analyst Ben Mattinson, is also five years, the Junior of English, which means that he is much more upwards and, according to research carried out by athletics, could improve because he will probably not reach the top of his powers until the age of 26 years.

In the end, Eze and Simons are both extraordinary players and would be unreal signatures for Arsenal.

However, due to its versatility, its superb underlying number and its age, Arteta and Co. should opt for the latter if they can only obtain one.
