Towards the end of the January transfer window, Arsenal looked frantically to sign a midfielder. The players the Gunners were linked with were options that should not be considered in the summer transfer window.
According to Italian news outlet Calciomercato, the Gunners will try to sign Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo this summer after failing with a January bid. However, it is a deal Edu should look to avoid.
Arthur would’ve been a decent loan option until the end of the season to plug the midfield gaps. But to sign him ahead of next season is not the right path, as there are better options for Mikel Arteta.
