Gremio midfielder Bitello has been linked with a move away to Arsenal from the club in recent weeks. According to a report from Portal Do Gremista, Premier League giants Arsenal recently sent representatives to watch the 23-year-old midfielder in action. This is when Gremio took the field against Botafogo last Sunday.
Bitello has been an important player for Gremio in recent months. His performances have attracted the attention of a number of European clubs.
Apparently, the Brazilian outfit could open negotiations. Thag would happen only if an offer of around €10 million is presented.
The 23-year-old central midfielder can also operate as a central attacking midfielder and a winger. He will add some much-needed creativity and depth and goals in the middle of the park if Arsenal manage to sign him.
The midfielder has contributed to seven goals and four assists across all competitions for Gremio the season. He has the potential to develop into a top-class playmaker.
What qualities does the Gremio midfielder bring to Arsenal
The 23-year-old South American could prove to be a quality long-term investment for Arsenal if they can secure his services.
The Gunners certainly have the financial resources to sign the player. It will be interesting to see if they decide to follow up on their interest with a concrete proposal for him in the next few days.
Mikel Arteta has put together a talented young squad at Arsenal. Moreover, the arrival of the 23-year-old will only boost the pool of young talent at the club.
It’s expected that West Ham have been anticipating Rice’s exit for some time. Arsenal’s interest in the midfielder has increased in the last six months.
The deal isn’t completed yet, with the completion and announcement of the move expected this week. However, the Gunners are also closing in on the signing of Ajax defender Jurrien Timber.
