ARSENAL AND ORKUN KOKCU TRANSFER LINKS FULL STORY
According to reports, Arsenal are showing interest in signing Orkun Kokcu in the next summer transfer. His current club Feyenoord are also ready to sell him for the right price. The midfielder’s contract with the Dutch clubs ends in 2025. Therefore, they are demanding at least 30 million for their star midfielder. A report also claims that the Gunners have tracked him for long time.
It also claims that Arsenal also showed interest in him for the last three years. However, they have never made a bid for the Turkish midfielder. Orkun will potentially be a great signing at 30 million. This is because clubs are demanding over 100 million for their star midfielder. However, the Gunners are not the only side interested in his signature.
A NUMBER OF OTHER TOP EUROPEAN CLUBS ARE ALSO SHOWING INTEREST
Brighton and Leicester City are also monitoring the situation. The interest of the Foxes will not make it difficult competition for the Gunners. However, Arsenal will have to fight with Brighton for his signature. This is because the Seagulls tend to buy young players for 20- 30 million and then make them superstars. They, then sell the players to big clubs for over 50 million.
Hence, this certainly is a big attraction for the young players to get game time and then play for the big clubs. Therefore, Arsenal will have to move fast with a plan for his development with the club after signing for them. This is the only way, they can beat Brighton for the signature of the Turkish midfielder. The young Turkish midfielder will also add more energy in the midfield for the team.
Arsenal also will potentially save money by signing Orkun Kokcu. This is because they had bids of 55 million and 60 million rejected for Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo. Hence, Mikel Arteta will certainly consider cheap and better options than Caicedo in the next summer transfer window.
