“They aren’t as serious as their fans think they are” – Arsenal Ex Boss Unai Emereto Arsenal issued warnings to Arsenal and their fans over January transfer



 


 



They don’t take themselves as seriously as their followers believe they do.- Former Arsenal manager Unai Emery has a message for Arsenal and its fans on the trade that took place in January



A warning has been sent to Arsenal by Unai Emery on the possibility of acquiring Jhon Duran, a striker for Aston Villa, before the transfer market shuts in January.

Duran was once again named on Villa’s bench for their Premier League match against West Ham on Sunday. The match was begun by Ollie Watkins, who is an England international.



Duran, a top player for Colombia, has only started four league games so far this season, and his lack of consistent minutes has led to speculation that he may leave the season in January.


West Ham and Chelsea were among the teams that were extensively associated with Duran prior to Aston Villa securing his contract in a transaction that was worth £17 million.

It has been claimed that West Ham has rekindled its interest in Aston Villa during the January transfer window, and they have approached the club with a bid of £57 million.

During the time when Mikel Arteta is looking to strengthen his offensive options before the transfer window closes, Arsenal has also been linked with a bid for the 21-year-old player.

Although Emery acknowledged that the Duran transfer reports were proving to be a distraction, he stressed that he wanted the forward to remain at the Midlands club. This statement was made after Aston Villa’s match against West Ham, which ended in a 1-1 tie.

There are a number of factors that are preventing us from being completely focused at this moment. When questioned about Duran’s future, Emery expressed his thoughts to Sky Sports.

The fact that Jhon Duran is our player, however, makes me content with him. I would like for him to be here with us. I want him to stop by.’

This season, Duran has made 28 appearances for Aston Villa and has scored 12 goals. However, if he were to start more frequently, he would surely have greater figures to show for his efforts.

During his remarks prior to the match against West Ham, Jamie Carragher, a former defender for Liverpool and England, stated that Aston Villa should make a profit off of Duran.

According to him, “I would sell Jhon Duran.” “It definitely goes against the grain of what most clubs would do because, generally in that position, you probably sell the elder one, Ollie Watkins, because you presumably think, “This man is going to be here for a long time.” However, this decision goes against the trend of what most teams would do.

On the other hand, I would make an effort to extract an additional ten million pounds from him. It appears that he is a really good player. It is occasionally necessary for players to be aware that they are playing when other people are talking about large squads.

“You always remember how Tottenham was unable to find a striker when they had Harry Kane because there is no striker, no good striker, who is going to wait for Harry Kane,” you said.

In light of the fact that Jhon Duran is going to enter the game with fifteen to twenty minutes remaining in each and every game, I don’t believe that you are getting the greatest performance out of Ollie Watkins.

On the other hand, he needs to bring him on with fifteen to twenty minutes left due to the fact that if he does not, he is going to be upset.

On Sunday, West Ham held Aston Villa to a 1-1 draw. Emerson Palmieri scored a goal in the 70th minute to cancel out Jacob Ramsey’s early strike, which Aston Villa had scored in the first half.

“The second half of the season began with two wins and two draws,” Emery continued. “We started off with a strong start.” “We have a lot of aspirations, and we always want more.”

The only thing that is required of us is to keep going and concentrate on Wednesday, get some players back, and make the most of the remaining week of the transfer window.

It is imperative that we improve the quality of our performances. We would like to compete in Europe.
