Calafiori To Real Madrid!?!? + Player Rejects Arsenal!!?

from The Gooner Factory · host The Gooner Factory

Arsenal transfer news is heating up, and today I break down some of the biggest stories surrounding Mikel Arteta’s squad.Riccardo Calafiori has reportedly attracted interest from Real Madrid, with reports suggesting Jose Mourinho could be keen on the Arsenal defender if he lands the Real Madrid job. Would Arsenal even consider selling Calafiori? I explain why I wouldn’t accept an offer, even if it was double the fee Arsenal paid to sign him.I also discuss why Jurrien Timber is becoming one of Arsenal’s most important players. Despite calls for Arsenal to sign a more attacking right-back, Timber’s all-round numbers and performances suggest he is already among the best full-backs in world football. Has Arsenal already solved a major position without needing another signing?There’s also concern surrounding William Saliba after comments from France manager Didier Deschamps suggested surgery could be a possibility. What could this mean for Arsenal ahead of the new season, and should fans be worried?Finally, I react to reports that Marcus Rashford has rejected Arsenal. Would Rashford be a smart signing for the Gunners? I explain why I’d only consider the deal under very specific circumstances and at the right price.Let me know your thoughts in the comments:🔴 Would you sell Calafiori to Real Madrid?⚪ Is Jurrien Timber Arsenal’s long-term right-back?🔴 How concerned are you about Saliba’s injury situation?⚪ Would you take Marcus Rashford at Arsenal?Subscribe to The Gooner Factory for daily Arsenal news, Arsenal transfer updates, Arsenal transfer rumours, match reactions, tactical analysis and all the latest from the Emirates Stadium.#Arsenal #AFC #ArsenalNews #ArsenalTransferNews #ArsenalTransfers #ArsenalFC #MikelArteta #PremierLeague #RiccardoCalafiori #Calafiori #RealMadrid #JoseMourinho #JurrienTimber #WilliamSaliba #DidierDeschamps #MarcusRashford #TransferNews #FootballNews #COYG #TheGoonerFactory Learn more about your ad choices.
