Isco Alarcon is on his way out of Real Madrid at the end of the season.
Although he has struggled for form and relevance in the last few years, he is still attracting the attention of Arsenal and other clubs around the continent.
Fichajes.net claims the midfielder will certainly leave Madrid and names five clubs interested in signing him for free.
Arsenal is one of them with the Gunners reportedly battling with Tottenham, West Ham, Liverpool and Newcastle United.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Isco is one of the finest midfielders of his generation, but the Spaniard is no longer good enough for Arsenal.
The club should have signed him earlier in his career. Since we didn’t do it back then, there is no need to do that now.
Our current midfield has some of the most exciting midfield prospects in Europe.
The likes Martin Odegaard and Emile Smith Rowe will develop into top players. Adding Isco to the current squad could affect their progress.
If Arsenal wants an experienced midfielder in their squad, they should target players who are still regulars at their current team.
If Isco isn’t good enough to play regularly in Madrid, he shouldn’t be able to do that at Arsenal.
do we need another attacking midfielder?
i think this area of the pitch is in good shape, its behind and infront of them that needs more
Issue here is…how do we get our strikers firing without creative players??? Wenger had fabregas, nasri and even Song to provide for RVP… pep has KDB gundogan and bernardo…..who do we have now apart from Odegaard…Rowe is more of a scorer and just gives simple passes, not really the kdb or TAA passes.
“Over the hill” and overrated IMO.
If we want to be top 6 we don’t need anyone in.
If we want top 4 we need to keep our top 1X fit for the next 18 PL games, get a tune out of Laca Auba and Pepe or replace one or other of and also hope our competion slip up.
In the summer off load at least 7-9 and buy/loan 4/5 including bringing Saliba back.
word salad anyone?
No thanks, hard pass. Any deal is about 4 years too late for Arsenal. Much prefer ESR and Odegaard in midfield, and any addition should be a solid DM.
