Arsenal are right to be watching former academy player and now USMNT star midfielder Yunus Musah, says Eric Wynalda. The 20-year-old was one of the standout players for Gregg Berhalter's USA team at the World Cup but had been gaining attention long before that.
It was initially reported that the Gunners were amongst the sides keen to sign Musah from Valencia last summer but his mammoth £86m ($108.2m) release clause was a stumbling block. It comes as even more of a hit for Arsenal after he was only let go in 2019 having never played for the first team.
Since moving to Spain, he has found a new home and also a place to demonstrate his skills in midfield. This is not the first time there has been a fight for his services either given England were keen to add him to their senior squad in 2021.
