Arsenal have been told to try and strike a deal with Manchester United for Donny Van De Beek’s signature.
The Dutch midfielder arrived at Old Trafford with a big reputation, but has found playing time extremely difficult to come by under manager Ole Gunnar Solksjaer.
Our side was linked with his signature prior to his move to Old Trafford, and the fact that his partner is no other than Dennis Bergkamp’s daughter, those rumours appear to be staying.
Football London claims that while there should be no reason why Arsenal shouldn’t try to strike a deal to save him from his nightmare in Manchester, they don’t believe that they would be willing to sell, because we are rivals for the European places.
Our form has seen us jump from bottom after three matches, up to joint-fifth alongside the Red Devils, and with another two months until that transfer window opens, we could well find ourselves ahead in the race for that fourth spot if we can continue with our impressive form.
I think United would be mad to allow any decent player to join us, as we are most definitely a rival for them and one which is threatening to finish higher than them at present, so the only realistic reason for them to allowing him to join would be because he either isn’t good enough, or has no interest.
For this reason, I’d much rather us look at alternative options.
Should Arsenal be taking any interest in DVB?

We are not joint 5th, that doesn’t exist. We are 6th currently as our goal difference is still negative.
Absolutely, we are 6th not joint 5th, no such thing.
I would sign him. A decent attacking player he would give more impetus and thrust to our attack and reduce the reliability and pressure on ESR and Saka. Also, given the fact he wants to prove a point in the PL, I think he will be a good signing. His exploits with Ajax, both in the Dutch league and in the CL cannot be forgotten and he is a very talented player, the only thing missing is the right opportunity.
Swap him for Odegaard, I’d be down for that!
His good.. Really Good, I don’t rate him Lousy”.
I’m not really a fan of light weight CMs/CAMs, I would prefer we get Zakari,
Our squad is light, we need worthy alternatives, surely there are other options in the sea,
Let’s get Zakari, Salmon, Bruno and probably loan Sterling ,
2 of the above should be good enough to boost the team.
