ARSENAL AND TIMOTHY CASTAGNE TRANSFER LINKS FULL STORY
According to reports, Arsenal have interest in signing of Timothy Castagne in the next summer transfer window. The right-back is also open to a move to the Gunners. Timothy Castagne also wants to continue his stay in the Premier League. However, his current club Leicester City cannot offer him Premier League football next season because of their relegation this season.
Therefore, Arsenal believe they can seal a low price deal for the Belgian right-back. Timothy Castagne wants to play at the highest level to maintain a place in the Belgian national team. Hence, a fee of 10-12 million can surely seal the deal for the Gunners. However, a report claims that the Gunners are prioritising a deal for Ivan Fresneda over Timothy Castagne.
THE GUNNERS ARE WEIGHING UP OPTIONS FOR THE RIGHT-BACK POSITION
According to reports, Arsenal want to sign a right-back in the next summer transfer window. Ben White is the only right-back currently. Whereas, Tomiyasu is prone to injuries. Whereas, Cedric will leave permanently after his loan spell with Fulham last season. Therefore, the Gunners need one more right-back for squad competition and depth in the squad.
Arsenal are also in the race for the signature of Ivan Fresneda. Ivan Fresneda is available for 20 million after his relegation from the La Liga with Real Valladolid. However, Borussia Dortmund are also in the race along with the Gunners. Hence, the Ivan Fresneda deal is an open race. However, the Gunners do lead the race for the signature of Timothy Castagne.
Arsenal will need squad depth ahead of the next season because of Champions League football. They also need to continue to give tough fight for the Premier League title. Hence, a signing like Timothy Castagne will surely add good competition to the squad.
