Edu's Transfer Targets: Summer Holidays 2021

20 days

Lovely stuff, wrong year for major rebuild!!

 

[Jasard]

Big signing in defense, midfield and attack. Be excited!

 

[Barry]

How is he in comparison with Buendia when it comes to the defensive side of the game?

Of the three deeper playing creative mids we've been linked to - Aouar, Sabitzer & DePaul - they all profile quite similar. Obviously Aouar is younger and left sided. Sabitzer looks like he gets through slightly more defensive work (especially interceptions), but his attacking numbers are also slightly weaker. Aouar and DP don't do much defending but have really elite attacking, passing and creative numbers.

They'd all be good choices if we go for a 4-3-3. De Paul has the best name, so he'd be my first choice.

Bell says we interested in Maddison

 

[HairSprayGooners]

AFCBell say Maddison is one of the players we want.

Everyone in the mud Hairspray on his horse

SIUUUUUUUUUUUU

"James Maddison is the centre of attention for Arsenal"

Tried to tell you boys.

 

[boonthegoon]

Afcbell goes on to say English media will deny this rumor in upcoming days but they don't have any doubt regarding our interest but does not guarantee deal will be concluded. Just that Maddison is our top target.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

This is more like it. Hard to see it tho.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

I've heard down the grapevine that we want to go bigger than our transfer record on one individual player this summer. And that player is within the league...

Thought it was Maddison or Grealish.

Maddison & White. That's a night out in Romford, right there.

 

[MauveGunner]

Twitter rumours, nothing but gathering hype and crushing dreams.

The Bell is a serious source. If he's saying Maddison is top target then Maddison is the top target.

 

[OnlyOne]

We won’t sign Maddison.

I'll believe it untill he's in an Arsenal kit on our website.

 

[OnlyOne]

Maddison & White are my kind of players, but you’re looking at over £100 mill for both and I can’t see it.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Maddison & White are my kind of players, but you’re looking at over £100 mill for both and I can’t see it.

White - £40M
Neves - £30M
Maddison - £65M
Lokonga - £15M
Backup left back/keeper - £10M
Right back - £20M

Still not even £200M, could even be a net spend of 100 after sales, but yeah it sounds ridiculous because its Arsenal.

 

[GDeep™]

I assumed you were on the same page as the above girls.

Me and you will disagree on the budget pre sales though.

 

[grange]

@HairSprayGooners, easy on the spray trigger or you'll get a contact high

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Me and you will disagree on the budget pre sales though.

What do you think it is?

I think budget pre sales gets us White, Maddison and Lokonga.
