There’s no denying that Arsenal have one of the tightest transfer budgets of the top six in the Premier League.
Unai Emery’s appointment as Arsenal’s head coach was always going to be a long-term project, and so far the Spaniard seems to be a success.
With Arsenal still in contention to finish as high as third in the Premier League and with the possibility of winning the Europa League as well, they could still end up having a decent season given that they are widely considered to have the weakest squad among the top 6 clubs.
The club made a few excellent signings over the summer, and players like Lucas Torreira, Matteo Guendouzi, Sokratis and Bernd Leno have all been instrumental in their wins this season.
However, Emery was always going to require at least 2-3 transfer windows before he could finally form the Arsenal team that he wants.
Rumors doing the rounds suggest that Emery is targeting at least three new signings over the
With Alex Iwobi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan the only wingers in the Arsenal team at the moment, the Gunners are in desperate need of a new winger this summer.
In that context, Bournemouth’s Ryan Fraser could be the perfect addition to the Arsenal team.
A number of sources have been linking Fraser with a move to Arsenal over the summer.
And even though he might not be a high profile signing, Arsenal need to make the most of this opportunity and sign the Bournemouth man.
Fraser’s contract with the Cherries runs till 2020. With no signs of renewal, Arsenal need to pounce quickly as clubs like Everton and Tottenham would also be interested in the Scot’s signature.
Emery has a very small transfer budget for this summer and he will probably have to sell a few players before he can buy.
But more importantly, Arsenal
Fraser is currently valued at just over £20 million and he fits Arsenal’s budget perfectly.
Ever since Bournemouth got promoted to the Premier League, Fraser’s role in the team has gradually increased and improved with each passing year.
