Arsenal considers including a defender in a swap deal for Eberechi Eze as Andrea Berta is determined to seal the transfer.
Arsenal is weighing up a potential swap deal for Eberechi Eze, with the club open to including a player in their offer.
According to reports, Arsenal has already agreed on personal terms with Eze and is ironing out the final details with his club, Crystal Palace. Eze has emerged as a top target for Arsenal in recent weeks, with the player reportedly “keen on a move to Arsenal.”
Arsenal chief Andrea Berta is determined to get the Eze deal over the line and is willing to convince Palace to accept a promising defender as part of the deal. While the specific player being considered is not known, it is believed to be an emerging star who has played a handful of games for the first team.
The Gunners are looking to strengthen their squad with new signings, having already secured Kepa Arrizabalaga and Martin Zubimendi. Christian Norgaard is also expected to complete a deal from Brentford soon.
With a top-four finish in the Premier League for the third season in a row, Arsenal aims to go one better this term.
Eze’s potential transfer to Arsenal would bolster the team’s attacking options, providing Mikel Arteta with more creative depth. The 25-year-old has shown impressive form for Crystal Palace, making him a desirable target for top clubs.
