Arsenal were unable to sign a winger in the summer transfer window, despite the clear need to strengthen in the wide areas. Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have a lot of pressure to perform until the next opportunity to address this area of the pitch opens.
One player who the club were reportedly looking to sign in the summer transfer window was Marco Asensio. But, a deal never managed to materialise, meaning the winger stayed in the Spanish capital following the closing of the market.
The Spanish winger sent Edu a reminder of why Arsenal should once again look to pursue a deal in the future as he has been a standout player for Spain in the group stages of the World Cup. He has been given opportunities which has not been afforded to him at Real Madrid.
