Mikel Arteta building a young Arsenal squad
Mikel Arteta has done a very good job for the Gunners this season. Arsenal are sitting at the top of the table in the Premier League. The Gunners will look for a top-four finish this season after failing to do last season.
In addition, Mikel Arteta is building a squad that is young and is not afraid to dominate with the ball. One of the players that the club is looking to sign is Evan Ndicka from Frankfurt. Ndicka is a left-footed centre back.
Current Premier League Standings
Arsenal have just one left-footed centre back and wants to sign another.
Journalist Ben Jacobs confirmed Arsenal’s interest in the defender but mentioned they will face a lot of competition from rival clubs in Europe.
Jacobs told GiveMeSport,
“Arsenal like the player. They’ve certainly done their legwork and their due diligence and their scouting on him.
“There’s a lot of interest in the player, not just from the Premier League but from all across Europe as well.”
The 23-year-old is in the last year of his contract and is showing no intention of signing a new one.
Frankfurt can sell Ndicka in winter for around £29m to Arsenal.
