Agbonlahor reckons Arsenal would want to sign Villa star

Aston Villa has been working to secure a new contract for Ollie Watkins for several months, but they have yet to make significant progress in negotiations. The striker has established himself as one of the Premier League’s top performers and consistently delivers strong performances on the field.

Arsenal has been linked with Watkins for some time, even before they signed Gabriel Jesus, and these rumours continue to circulate. The Gunners are always on the lookout to strengthen their squad, and Villa is aware of the interest in their star player.

However, Villa is currently struggling to reach an agreement on a new contract for Watkins, and it’s clear that Arsenal is monitoring the situation closely. The uncertainty surrounding Watkins’s contract negotiations could potentially make him a target for the Gunners or other clubs looking to bolster their attacking options.

He tells Football Insider:

“He’s reliable, and you know he’s always going to come up with the goods.

“But it’s a negotiation and I’m sure they’ll come to the right decision. The club know there will be many takers for a player like Watkins if there’s no agreement.

“I’m sure the likes of Arsenal would love to have him and give him the money he wants.”

Just Arsenal Opinion

The best clubs in Europe always add new quality players to their squad and we must do the same to stay at the same level as we are now.

Watkins will add goals to our game, and we probably should decide to replace Eddie Nketiah with him.

  1. Tony is slightly better at being in the right place to hit the ball first time on the end of a cross etc.., Whereas Olli will carry the ball from outside the penalty area or buildup the play before scoring. I think we need someone nearer to the goal, in that area, like a fox in the box, as Nketiah and Jesus do both miss opportunities to get on the end of near goal keeper area chances. So Toni rather than Ollie for fox in the box striker. Even better would be Victor from Napoli.

  2. For me, one of the three things we need to do is to upgrade Nkaetiah. Does Watkins better Nketiah, I would say yes. The other two things we need to do are to bring in a box-to-box midfielder to compete with Havertz. And lastly, we need to bring in a good right winger to rotate Saka. Sign three players then we have two players for every position
