Dean Huijsen

Three PL clubs in the race, us, Liverpool and Chelsea. Apparently the PL clubs want to act fast on his release clause so his next destination will be decided this month.

Huijsen looked quality at the weekend. If we do sell Kiwior in the summer, he would be a very good replacement and long term successor to Gabriel.

Thought he looked suspect defensively tbh and of course he went on to score.

The vibe I’m getting is that Chelsea and Liverpool are more keen than us, and for good reason tbf.
They’d both be bringing him in to start for them whereas I don’t think that would be the case, certainly not immediately.

Wasn’t great defensively in Italy. Was always his quality on the ball that stood out but defensively not been a fan of him anytime I’ve seen him.

Which of the two CBs does he start ahead of at Liverpool?

Can’t those cunts Madrid just sign him instead

He’s not better than either of them but Konate has a year left in his deal and apparently he’s looking to go.

Between Liverpool and us.

Got a feeling Liverpool will land him.

We’re signing him because the most Arsenal thing possible is to spend 100m on a DM and CB.

And a goalkeeper, we can’t forget that inevitability :sweat_smile:

Madrid have apparently entered the market for a CB and LB ahead of the Club World Cup(took them a million injuries ffs).

Won’t lie, I hope they get this lad. Makes Saliba less of a priority for them.

Yeah that will take the spotlight off Saliba for a while

Hopefully they get him and Konate this summer

Chelsea missing out and Real getting a high potential CB to cool off the Saliba interest is just

Fabrizio tap in.
Tbf, he’s been saying for weeks that the kid and his father are desperate to go to Madrid.
This is a Raphinha-esque situation. Now that they know Madrid are looking at CBs this window, they’ll help facilitate the move any way possible. I wouldn’t be shocked if Bournemouth are bullied into accepting a lower fee or with a different structure to his RC.

Damn, so we’re really going for him too.

That’s Ā£110m spent on Zubimendi en Huysen.. While still needing a center forward, left winger and goalkeeper.

It’s certainly positive that activating his RC isn’t an issue.

Shows there’s definitely money to be spent in this accounting period. I guess we already knew that after that Watkins bid.
Also positive that we’re already deep into our transfer dealings in early May.

Kiwior will leave and Tomoyasu is made out of sugar paper. Huijsen would be a quality signing even if not in a priority area.

We are ready to spend £50m on another left footed defender?!

We have a £500m summer budget then, I assume? Or we are planning to sell Calafiori and Kiwi?

Btw, only now I see he’s spanish(?!?) lol :arteta4:

He’s right footed. :rofl:
