Arsenal have struggled to cope with the loss of Santi Cazorla to injury this term, and I can’t help but look at possible replacements.
Everton are supposedly considering allowing Gerard Deulofeu to leave the club, and have already turned down a temporary offer, with a permanent deal seemingly more likely for the Spaniard.
The former Barcelona youth product has formerly been hailed as one of the best young talents on the continent, but has failed to earn a regular starting role for the Merseyside club.
I would love to see Arsene Wenger take a chance on him and bring him to Arsenal, and could see how he could be due a positional change.
In my opinion, Deulofeu has always been highly creative, and like Santi Cazorla, has excellent close-control and is keen to get forward.
I can see the 22 year-old being a top central midfielder with a little bit of time, and we know how Arsene Wenger loves a bargain, as well as seeing how to get the most out of players with a position change.
AC Milan were said to have come in with an offer to loan the Everton star, and are also claimed to be unwilling to buy him as they struggle with their finances amidst the takeover by Chinese investors.
Middlesbrough and Ajax are now believed to be leading the chase for Deulofeu, but I would like our club to get involved.
Can anyone else see a potential central midfielder in Deulofeu? Should Arsenal look at signing him?
