Berta eyeing “one of the best 10s in the world” for Arsenal

Arsenal Have Been Graced with the Presence of Some of the Finest Attacking Midfielders of the Last Few Generations.

When Arsene Wenger First Arrival in North London, He Had Dennis Bergkamp at his dispatch, One of the Most Technically Gifted Artists We’ve Eve in the Premier league. So good was the dutchman that he’s now cast in bronze outside the emirates stadium.

In More Modern Times, We’ve Seen Mesut Ozil – The King of Assists – Feature in Arsenal Red and White, While Martin OdegaardOne of the Most Hyped Up Wonderkids of This Era, is Stamping His Authority On Mikel Arteta‘s side.

Yet, with the Norwegian Enuning A Bit of A Tricky Season Throughout 2024/25, Suffering with Ankle Injury, Perhaps Andrea Berta and Co Will Look at Signing A New Creative Maestro.

Arsenal Looking at Dutch Superstar

The Biggest Priority for Arsenal this Summer is to sign A New Center-Forward But Berta Must Not Neglect Other Areas of the Pitch and Could Strengthen in the Attacking Midfield Spot Too.

Previous reports have suggested that the Gunners Are Keen on Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers But he could cost in the region of £ 100m, Making Any Deal Nigh it is impossible.

Instead, they could turn their attention to rb leipzig’s Xavi Simons. That’s According to German Publication Bild, Via Sport Witness.

They report on thursday that simons is attracting interest from a number of English clubs, included arsenal, manchester united, tottenham hotspur and newcastle united.

It’s stated that the player’s brother, Faustino, has been in talks with top clubs already but the first league’s elite will also face Competition from Barcelona.

To conclude a deal, it may take around € 70m (£ 60m), which would mark a healthy outlay for the Gunners, considering theiries Largely Lie Elsewher this Summer.

How Xavi Simons Could Fit Into Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal Side

While Arsenal Don’t Play With An Out-And-out Number 10 at the moment, Simons WOULD STILL BE A FABULOUS Capture Considering The Form of Odegaard This Season.

Sustaining ankle Injury During the First International Break of the Term, the Club Captain Struggled To Rediscover Himself During A Rugged Old Year for Him in Arsenal Red.

Odegaard Ended the Campaign with Six Goals and 12 Assists in All Competitions. Only Three of Those Goals Came in the League which is a far cry from The 15 he registered in 2022/23. That Season, No Midfielder Scored More Than Him in the Premier League.

SO, The Nordic Playmaker Needs to Improve Big Time and the Addition of A New Center-Forward Could Well Him Recucture His Best Form.

However, some Healthy Competition Wouldn’t Go Amiss and in the Shape of Simons, They Could Sign An Emile Smith Rowe-Like Figure of Challenging Odegaard for a Role as Arsenal’s Chief Creator.

In the Latest Season, The Netherlands International was sublime, SCORING 11 Goals and Supplying Eight AssistsAdding to the Ten Goals and 15 Assists he Registered in 2023/24. Those Numbers Showcase Why, In the words of one data analysthe is “one of the best 10s in the world.”

That’s fine praise and showcases precisely Why arsenal have cast their Eyes in the direction of Simons. SO, Beyond Just Goals and Assists from Midfield, What else Makes Him Similar To Smith Rowe?

The Hale End Starlet Left Arsenal Behind for Fulham Last Summer After Struggling With A Succession of Injuries, But on His Day He was one of the Most Exciting Attacking Midfielders in the Top-Flight.

His Numbers from the 2021/22 Season show precisely why.

In the Metrics analyzed, simons comes out on top in nearly evening category, but it’s important to note that in most areas, there is a lot to separate the dutchman and the arsenal academy graduate.

They scored a similar number of goals per 90 minutes, arriving late into the penalty are to wreak havoc, while their carrying ability, perhaps the biggest similarity, is loanty much on by.

The Duo Possess this Amazing Low Center of Gravity, a Trait that Helps Them Evade The Press and Weave Their Way Past Defenders With Ease. It also enables them to Grab the Ball Between the Lines on Regular Basis, with the Pairing Receiving A Similar Number of Progressive Every 90 Minutes.

A Pass is considering Progressive If the Distance Between The Starting Point and the Next Touch is at Least 10 Meters Closer to the Opponent’s Goal or Any Completed Pass Into The Penalty Area.
