Arsenal targets Dortmund midfielder to increase creativity

DBasia.news – Even though they have just won an important victory over Chelsea, Arsenal are considered to have flaws in terms of playing creativity. To improve this, the Gunners are reportedly targeting the Dortmund midfielder.

One of the players reportedly on Arsenal’s list in the January transfer window is German midfielder, Julian Brandt. This news is somewhat interesting as Arsenal already have another creative German midfielder, Mesut Ozil.

Reported by Team Talk, Borussia Dortmund is rumored to be selling the 24-year-old midfielder.

Brant also began to lose his position at Dortmund because his performance was not as expected.

Last season Julian Brandt only scored three goals, while this season the player has only started six Bundesliga matches. Even though his performance graph seems to have decreased, Brandt is a creative player.

The proof is that last season the former Bayer Leverkusen player recorded seven assists and was able to create 39 opportunities. A record that Arsenal’s current players don’t have.

Brandt is rumored to be a suitable option to patch Arsenal’s shortcomings in midfield. “It’s pretty clear what we need. We need players with creativity in the middle. We don’t have that in the squad right now, “said Arsenal’s technical director.

If Arsenal wanted to sign Brandt, they must be prepared to spend at least 30 million pounds.
