Thierry Henry tells Mikel Arteta why Arsenal should sign Europe's hottest £60m midfield prospect

Thierry Henry has sang the praises of Arsenal’s potential next signing. The Gunners will be in desperate need of a midfielder and a forward in the summer transfer window, and Christopher Nkunku would be the ideal signing.

According to French news outlet L'Equipe, the French international wants to leave his current club in the summer, despite Leipzig's intentions to keep him at the club. Arsenal has been linked to him in the past, and they reportedly recently reignited their interest in the player.

Nkunku's versatility across the midfield and the forward positions makes him a very attractive signing. Even more so for Arsenal when you consider Mikel Arteta's need to strengthen in both the midfield and attacking departments for the summer, and the incentive to sign him should have increased for Arsenal after Henry’s recent comments.
