DBasia.news – Arsenal are actively involved in the transfer market ahead of the deadline. Not only signing Denis Suarez from Barcelona, but Unai Emery squad also strengthen the wing-forward position. Especially, after Henrikh Mkhitaryan injured.
Sky Sports reported Emery chose the Belgium winger, Yannick Carrasco. The 25-year-old player is now playing in the Chinese Super League with Dalian Yifang since February 2018.
The interest is triggered by The Gunners’ difficulty in signing the Croatian striker Ivan Perisic. The same source said even though Inter Milan are ready to let go of the 29-year-old striker, they want him to be signed permanently.
Carrasco is the right choice considering his fee around 20 million euro. But, his performance with Dalian Yifang wasn’t really convincing in 2018. Performing in 26 caps of all competitions, the former AS Monaco player just scored 7 goals and 9 assists.
