Arsenal face a choice if they want to buy Zaha, sell Aubameyang

The BBC’s David Ornstein has revealed that Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha is keen on the joining Arsenal.

However, for that to happen the club will have to sell Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang according to the same report.

Basically, Arsenal would have to sell either Lucas Torreira or Aubameyang claims Ornstein, however, the club are reluctant to allow Torreira to go which leaves the Gabon international as the only realistic alternative.

That is a hell of a dilemma for the club and one which is sure to split the fans.

It takes some doing selling a Golden Boot winner that has been a complete success ever since he arrived.

But at the same time, he is 30-years-old, whereas Zaha is just 26 and in excellent form.

That said, even though he was young Zaha did fail at Man Utd and it is a different ball game playing for a Top-Six club compared to a mid-table team.

For this to happen Arsenal are going to have to walk a very tricky path, the last thing they want to do is alienate the fanbase more than it already has.

The bottom line for the fans is would they be happy to swap Aubamyenag for Zaha? Because that is what it basically boils down to.
