I don't know much about Endo. To be honest, until yesterday, I never knew who he was.
They must have scouted him and followed him since his very good performance for Japan in the world cup.
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.
This is a good plan since Timber will be out all through the season. The coach had a plan with him for this season,but It is no longer going to work It is a big disappointment for Arsenal because they were already happy to have signed a versatile player like him. For Timber, he will not be happy for how long he will be out, as he will have to fight his way to the first team choice again.
