Former Arsenal defender, Mikael Silvestre has urged the Gunners to sign Real Sociedad’s Mikel Merino and Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sane this summer transfer window.
Silvestre believes the duo would be a good addition to Arsenal, adding that they would bring competition to Mikel Arteta’s squad.
He told Bettingexpert: “Sane will bring quality and competition for Martinelli and Saka. They have a lot of competition this season so they need quality to close the gap. He’s a quality player.
“Mikel Merino is another profile that would suit Arsenal and the style of play. There’s room in the midfield, but the places are tough to get with Ødegaard, Rice, Jorginho, Havertz and Partey, so it’s not easy, but they need competition to close the gap [with Man City].”
