We asked for your views on Arsenal completing the signing of Italy defender Riccardo Calafiori and who the club should target next.
Here are some of your comments:
Sam: This looks like a great signing! You can never be 100% until you see them in the shirt, but he fits the Arteta profile and I think he’ll offer a better all-round option than what we already have. I think we’ll see Arteta experimenting with a back three this season, which Calafiori suits perfectly, being able to step up into the six role in possession.
David: Calafiori should be a good signing. Allows us to sub out Saliba and Gabriel to rest them. Gyokeres has to be our next signing though. We need a striker, and he’s the last piece to ensure that we end next season with the trophy in the Emirates.
Zac: We are going to win the Premier League next season but I think there is one thing we can do to strengthen the squad. We should sign a clinical striker like Osimhen!
Annelise: Calafiori is your classic Italian defender and is a ruthless player on the pitch. If he plays left-back we will surely have the best defence in the league. Personally my only real worry is where Timber will play, but if Rice plays more as an eight he could potentially play as a six.
John: I think Arsenal will win the league this coming season. With the addition of Calafiori, who I believe should be able to play CDM for us in case Thomas Partey and Jorginho are injured, the team looks solid and Martinelli should be able to cover the striker role. Nothing will stop us winning the league.
