What’s the story?
According to Mirror, the Gunners are planning to find a permanent solution to the ongoing left-back situation at the Emirates. With the likes of Sead Kolasinac and Nacho Monreal being injured, problems could be getting worse for the gunners as most of their players are injured. In such circumstances, Unai Emery has found a player who can be a ‘fix’ to all the turmoil that the full-backs are having.
In case you didn’t know…
Tagliafico was one of the main players in the starting 11 of the Argentine football team at the world cup and he did attract a lot of attention from the likes of Borussia Dortmund and AS Monaco. An extremely skilled player, he can be an extremely important inclusion for Emery.
The heart of the matter
Despite having an exceptional league run, Arsenal faces a lot of injury problems in every position. Unai Emery’s style of play involves his fullbacks, and his left-back situation needs to be fixed. Tagliafico is the man to go for, as the reports have suggested.
Rumor probability: 7/10
But given the fact that there are more accomplished left-backs who fare way better than he can change Emery’s choice. According to the Mirror, though, it looks like the deal could actually be taking place, as at this moment, Arsenal don’t seem to have much choice.
