The idea that both Moises Caicedo and Declan Rice could be Arsenal players next season is an exciting one. The pair are arguably the best two deeper central midfielders outside of the title chasers and Casemiro.
Of course, both have the technical ability to influence the box-to-box role too and Rice in particular highlighted this with his goal against Gent in the UEFA Europa Conference League. Meanwhile, Caicedo has been showcasing his versatility covering at right-back for Brighton and against Arsenal shone in the perfect audition – besides ending Gabriel Martinelli’s season of course.
However, there’s perhaps a problem surfacing with what Arsenal might do even if they were to get both of their dream midfield targets. Particularly related to more outgoings than many considered.
