Arsenal and Real Sociedad have reached an agreement for Mikel merino in a deal worth about 25 million Euros.
The midfielder will be Arsenal's third signing of the summer after they completed the signing of David Raya and Ricardo Calafiori from Bologna.Mikel will play a major role in Arsenal's new midfield,and this deal will see Rice play as a more deep defensive midfielder,unlike last season when Arteta shifted him to play in that Left front of the pitch.
Mikel Arteta is also aiming to bring in more players before the window slams shut by the end of the month.Welcome to Arsenal,Merino.
This is a good deal for Arsenal. This will give us more options in the midfield, we can give some players brake when they need and the signings also give us more squad depth against injuries because Premier League is hard to play and if injuries starts some teams without squad depth do suffer it.
David Raya, Riccardo Calafiori, and now Mikel merino; these signings will make good impact in the Arsenal squad and it will help Arsenal’s title chase.
My main concern is a striker, if we can be able to sign a striker, we can confidently win the league without much pressure and obstacles provided we have a striker that can promise us above 20 goals a season.
