Arsenal Legend Thierry Henry now tells Arsenal to re-sign player Mikel Arteta sold for £21M or else it will be difficult for them win a trophy this season.
Thierry Henry, an iconic figure in Arsenal’s history, is advocating for the return of Granit Xhaka, who departed the club last summer, emphasizing the need for his presence in the team.
The suggestion arises from Arsenal’s ongoing struggles in the midfield, prompting fans to anticipate improvements during the current transfer window.
After spending seven years with Arsenal, Xhaka moved to Bayer Leverkusen for £21.4 million last year. Despite facing criticism during his time at Emirates Stadium, he managed to transform his career and gain the support of Arsenal fans.
Xhaka’s departure has left a noticeable void in the team, not only due to his playing skills but also his willingness to defend his teammates.
The recent complaint filed by Arsenal regarding Bukayo Saka’s rough treatment has fueled calls for the acquisition of a midfield enforcer, with Henry proposing Xhaka’s re-signing as a viable solution if securing a player like Patrick Vieira or Roy Keane proves challenging.
Last season, Xhaka showcased his prowess as one of the country’s top box-to-box midfielders, playing a crucial role on the left side of the pitch, contributing significantly to Arsenal’s success.
With Kai Havertz now occupying that position, Arsenal has encountered difficulties, affecting the performances of players like Gabriel Martinelli and Oleksandr Zinchenko, leading to challenges in their attacking plays this season.
Arsenal supporters are eagerly awaiting the team’s approach to addressing these concerns in the current transfer window.
