Jorrel Hato

He will be expensive.

He fits the plan of spending big on young talent. Kiwior has done well out of position so I wouldn’t be ready to sell him. Hato will more likely be a long-term replacement for Zinny in the squad.

Translation: ā€œArsenal have been doing their homework on Hato and now United are trying to jump the lineā€

yeah who is he gonna choose…very difficult decision for him to potentially make here. CL with a team fighting for the title. Or a team fighting each other and a manager full of excuses with a team that has no accountability either. hhmmmm decisions, decisions!

I wonder if they’ll settle for someone else now or just wait for him.

Ain’t gonna win shit with Ajax soon buddy, sign for arsenal and loan back for a year we’ll manage.

Will we renew our interest this summer?

He visited Liverpool recently, invited by his mate Gravenberg. They probably would be favourites to sign him.

Our interest in signing him predated both Calafiori and the emergence of MLS so I’m assuming its no longer a fit. He could come in if Kiwior leaves but I’m not sure how attractive the fit would be for him at this point given the competition.

VVD will either leave Liverpool or retire soon and they also have an obvious need at LB given Robertson’s age/declie and Tsimikas being a nothing player. I’d certainly fancy my chances there more than at Arsenal if I was a young LCB/LB like Hato.

Could be bollocks and they are not Ornstein but this feels like one of our long-standing targets we want to get done.

If we sign this kid before we announce at least 2 attacking signings, the meltdown on OA will be something else.

deservedly so…

cause you know the club will come out with excuses when they fail to sign world class attackers by September 1st.

I’ll have his name printed on the new kit to be honest.

This is the most exciting player we’ve been linked to this summer for me. Yes we need and are going to get a striker and another attacker, but this guy is already close to Timber, Saliba and Gabriel’s level. A generational talent.

I’ve got a bottle of fizzy ready for this announcement.

Does this transfer mean that Kiwior will be leaving?
