It seems Arsenal is closing in on a move for Fenerbahce star Ferdi Kadıoğlu, as several reports are following the story.
The Gunners are set to improve their squad this summer and have been linked with several players.
Mikel Arteta’s side has been fantastic to watch, but most clubs strengthen every summer, and the team that fails to do so will get left behind.
Arsenal knows they need to do more to topple Manchester City, and the Gunners will seize the opportunity when it arises.
Kadıoğlu is the latest player being linked with a move to the Emirates, and several reports suggest Arsenal is working on the deal behind the scenes to bring the versatile star to London.
Now that the season is over, they might accelerate their efforts to ensure he joins them. However, Takvim reports there is now competition for his signature.
They claim that Borussia Dortmund also likes the player, and the Champions League finalists will challenge Arsenal for his signature.
Just Arsenal Opinion
BVB’s interest confirms that he is a good player and we should do our best to win the race for his signature.
He will choose us over BVB and we expect to offer him more money than the Germans can as well.
Seems like the club is intent on signing a left back. The other potential left back signing we’ve been linked to is the young Dutchman Jorrel Hato.
Unlike Kadioglu, Hato is a natural left footed left back or LCB who should be a priority signing for Arsenal.This young guy is considered to be a generational talent by Dutch pundits and ex players and at 18/19 he fits the age profile to become a regular for Arsenal for some time.
Agree, Hato is superb. And to think he is just 18 is crazy.
Kardioglu isn’t going to cost us fortunes. And he is extremely versatile player who can even cover as a winger if necessary. And Hato, yes, if we can get him, as he is much sought after.
But I would be happy if we could get Kardioglu. He can be our next Saka like player. Defensively, Kardioglu is very adept, and equally good at dribbling and carrying the ball. He would technically solve our left channel dynamic along with Timber.
But like Timber, he can barely kick a ball with his left foot.
Good luck to Dortmund!
I hope they beat us to him.
