Arsenal FC journalist Charles Watts has responded to the latest transfer rumours linking Fenerbahce remaining-again Ferdi Kadioglu strongly as a top rated summer time concentrate on for the Gunners.
The Turkey intercontinental appears to be like an outstanding talent who could do a work for Mikel Arteta’s side, specifically as Oleksandr Zinchenko no longer appears to be like like the distinct and obvious first choice in that situation, with Jakub Kiwior and Takehiro Tomiyasu both acquiring match time in advance of him for a great deal of the season just long gone, even with remaining-again not staying the purely natural situation for both of them.
Talking solely to CaughtOffside for his latest Each day Briefing column, Watts described that he’s unconvinced by the tales bordering Kadioglu, even if he can see Arsenal seeking for a new option at still left-back again this summer season.
Watts feels we usually see transfer tales like this from the Turkish media that really do not quantity too substantially, with the United kingdom press seemingly not selecting it up so much, so it could possibly be that there are other names increased up on Arsenal’s record.
Kadioglu transfer discuss played down but Hato could be an Arsenal goal
Watts’ comprehension seems to be that Ajax wonderkid Jorrel Hato could be much more likely than Kadioglu for Arsenal.
“I’m generally sceptical when I listen to of transfer stories linking Arsenal with players in Turkey. There are generally so several of people forms of stories and they under no circumstances seriously appear to fruition,” Watts claimed.
“Ferdi Kadioglu is the most up-to-date to be connected, but I however consider Jorrel Hato continues to be the leading target, ought to Arsenal appear to strengthen the remaining aspect of defence.
“The desire in Hato remains, even with him signing a new deal at Ajax, and I wouldn’t be at all surprised if they make an try to convey him in this summer.
“He suits the bill of the variety of player Arsenal like to signal and despite the fact that he prefers to play as the left centre-again somewhat than as a still left-again, I however would not rule it out.
“The way Arsenal perform now with Ben White inverting into midfield from the proper, Arsenal are inclined to play with the left-back again slotting in alongside Gabriel and William Saliba anyway.”
