Arsenal set to meet player’s agent ‘over the coming days’ as DEAL edges closer

Posted by

Arsenal look to be pursuing a deal for Chilean midfielder Charles Aránguiz as Arsene Wenger aims to strengthen his options in central midfielder, with his agent reportedly jetting into London over the coming days, according Gazzetta delle sport reporter Nicolo Schira.

Despite Francis Coquelin’s form, Arsenal have been repeatedly linked with moves for holding midfielders as the futures of Mikel Arteta, Abou Diaby and Mathieu Flamini look far from secure.

A move for Aranguiz would be a surprise however, given that he currently plies his trade in Brazil and, standing at 5′ 7”, isn’t the imposing holding midfielder Arsenal have been crying out for.

However, his agent Fernando Felicevich has strong ties with Arsenal, as he represents Alexis Sanchez and has a relationship with Arsene Wenger.
