CONFIRMED: Another star player from Man City is likely to join Arsenal before the window closes. They will join Gabriel Jesus and Zinchenko. You can tell that Pep Guardiola is unhappy with the way things are going.
Arsenal may decide to go back to the transfer market right away after having talks to sign a Premier League winner. They just beat Aston Villa in a tough game to make it two wins in a row.
News about Arsenal moves
Arsenal didn’t bring in a lot of new players this summer. Instead, they focused on making their current team stronger. Riccardo Calafiori has already started to settle in, and Mikel Merino is on the way. The defender for Mikel Arteta scored the second goal for his team last weekend at Villa Park, but Merino is likely to start instead of Thomas Partey.
Arsenal’s play against Aston Villa changed quickly when Leandro Trossard came on. The winger who used to play for Brighton & Hove Albion made the difference that Gabriel Martinelli didn’t in the first hour. He scored the first goal in the 67th minute after coming off the bench in the 65th.
The left wing spot is still open, but the Gunners may finally be able to solve their problems through the trade window and with experience. According to Graeme Bailey of HITC, Arsenal had held talks to sign Raheem Sterling after his team got in touch with the North London giants, along with Aston Villa and West Ham United.
There is a chance that Arsenal will end the summer on a high note. This would allow Sterling and Arteta to play together again after a great time at Manchester City.
In response to the rumours, Arteta recently talked about his time working with Sterling. He told Sky Sports, “My time with Raheem was exceptional.” We built a strong relationship together. That’s when he was really great.
He also taught me a lot about people, how players think, and how we can help and support them. It makes me feel a lot of things about him.
Sterling’s words “unbelievable” could make Martinelli think about more things.
Martinelli may be reaching a point where he has real questions about whether he should start as Arteta’s left winger going forward, especially since Trossard keeps pushing for the Brazilian from the bench. And adding Sterling as an experienced option would only make those questions stronger.
Sterling was a big part of Manchester City’s success over the years, but he was later put on the bench at Chelsea. Even though he is said to make £325,000 a week, Arsenal might still make a strong move.
He did better for Chelsea when they were having trouble than Martinelli did for Arsenal when they were winning everything last season. The England star has shown the Premier League what he can do when good players are around him, and the results are often hardware. There is still time for Arsenal to make the most of his current situation at Stamford Bridge during the last five days of the transfer window.
