Arsenal is very keen to sign a £40m defender who models his game on wood

Arsenal is now really interested in signing a £40 million defender this summer, many of whom may withdraw from the Emirates Stadium, a report said.

Arteta begins to reshape his backline

Mikel Arteta now launches plans to reshape the defense, with the Gunners recently contacting Dinamo Tbilisi’s Saba Kharebashvili, who is part of the long-term plan for the left-back.

Arteta hopes to move Myles Lewis-Skelly back to midfield, which means a new left-back may be needed, especially given that Kieran Tierney will return to the Celtics after the contract expires.

Andrea Berta has no hesitation to waste his new sporting director role, and a report shows that the Italians can also consider signing Espanyol left-back Omar El Hilali, whose release clause is only £12.5 million.

The boot room has now abandoned another update about Arsenal’s pursuit of left-back, showing that they really want to sign Ajax defender Jorrel Hato, who was previously worth £40m.

Hato has been honored for quite some time, and they are still interested in the defenders’ moves, with the defender showing his versatility this season, having served as the left-back, which has previously appeared primarily at the center back.

Given that Tierney is about to leave and the club has been showing interest in Zinchenko, Ateta may have a little revelation in the near future, and Jakub Kiwior may leave this summer.

The versatile Hato may be Arsenal’s top signature

Given Arteta’s plan to move Lewis-Skelly to midfield and that many left-backs leave Arsenal in the near future, it’s clear that new recruits may be needed in the area and that Hato may be a sign of a first-time signature.

Given his versatility and “elite potential”, football scout Ben Mattinson compared Ajax’s defender to wood.

The 19-year-old also admitted that he looked up at wood during Ajax’s U18, not Virgil Van Dijk.

“The coach told me that I always need to look up to Virgil van Dijk, but when I play in the Under 18 game, I always look up to Jurain wood.”

“When I joined the first team, he was my mentor.

“I like his style of playing, his calmness with the ball.”

Not only that, the Ajax star has ranked high on some key metrics over the past year compared to other defenders, suggesting he may be the perfect addition to left-back Arsenal.
