Arsenal are exploring the possibility of signing another versatile defender after their key man, Jurrien Timber suffered injury in the game against Northingham Forest.The players has already gotten his way into the hearts of Arsenal fans with his solids performance and versatility in the Arsenal team.The player who was bought from Ajax for a fee in the region of 45 million Euros was brought in to be a cover for Zinchenko,and since his arrival at Arsenal,his defensive capabilities has made Arteta chose him over Tierney,but his injury will force Arsenal to look at the transfer window again in other to strengthen that department.It is yet to be seen how long the payer will be on the sideline,but Arteta has discussed bringing in another player,and who that could be has not yet been disclosed.
In my opinion,I think Arsenal coach Arteta should not look at signing any other left back again since they have Zinchenko and Tierney already in that wing,he should give Tierney a chance to prove himself because ever since they bought Zinchenko,Tierney chances has been limited,and it has made the player to always commit blunders anytime his is given a chance.I know Tierney is a very good player,a solid left back that was very good and is still very good,but Arteta prefers a player that is versatile and good at ball passing.Zinchenko has that quality,while the former is lagging behind in that aspect.
Therefore,since they have two left backs already,sticking to them is what Arteta would have done,unless he is intending to sell Tierney out,because from all indications,it looks like he doesn't have the player in his plans.Nevertheless,it is yet to be known whether he will let Tierney go,or he will still keep him at the club to fight for his place in the Arsenal team.
