Most Wanted: Arsenal’s Top Ten Summer Transfer Targets

6- Ashley Williams- Swansea City

Michu’s team mate Ashley Williams is also a target for Arsene Wenger. The manager wants to re-enforce the Gunners defence this summer and believes Williams could be an excellent signing following his excellent performances for Swansea. Williams is definitely a leader and that is something that Arsenal sides have been missing lately. He is also a strong, physical presence at centre-back, in the mould of former Arsenal captain Tony Adams. Williams excellent performances have also been seen by other clubs, including Liverpool, Everton and Napoli. Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers wants to be re-united with Williams having coached him during his time as Swansea manager while Roberto Martinez also coached Williams when he was Swansea boss. Napoli manager Rafa Benitez was also impressed with Williams, having seen him during his spell as Chelsea boss last season and could try to bring the Welshman with him to Italy. The main problem for Arsenal though is that Swansea are reluctant to let their captain go and are demanding at least £10 million for the defender, which Arsenal are refusing to pay at the moment.
