Five centre-backs Arsenal must target this summer

Benedikt Howedes (Schalke)

Currently skippering a sliding Schalke squad, Howedes could bring some leadership and experience to Arsenal’s defence. Coming off a World Cup win, Benedikt Howedes could partner up with Laurent Koscielny to form a veteran, solid back line for the Gunners. Although his age could be a concern, his credentials certainly put him in the conversation for possible transfer targets this summer for Arsenal.
