Arsenal had a strong start to the summer transfer window addressing both the forward and defensive positions, which clearly needed strengthening towards the back of last season. Despite a good start to the window, more acquisitions were still needed towards the end of the market, which will now have Edu occupied in the winter window in January.
Two positions seem to be the main targets for the Gunners, as Edu has reportedly been chasing players in the midfield and wing areas. It looks as though the Brazilian is prioritising the wide areas at Arsenal and could be using the World Cup to assess players for the January transfer window.
Links to Chelsea’s Christian Pulisic have surfaced, but this should not deter Edu from focusing on completing a deal for Mykhaylo Mudryk, as the Ukrainian has already shown this season why he would be the better choice in strengthening the wide areas.
