Arsenal’s ‘face Liverpool fight’: Four star targets to ease Bukayo Saka worry.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has expressed his thoughts on the topic of ‘celebration police’ in the context of the team’s upcoming match, as discussed in The Big Preview. One highlight is the talent of Bukayo Saka, an exciting winger at Arsenal. However, Arteta is concerned about the lack of serious competition for the 22-year-old, especially as they compete against Manchester City’s strong squad depth. The recent injury scare for Saka in the match against Liverpool has raised concerns, particularly due to the absence of natural right-wingers to fill in for him.
To address this issue, Arteta needs a capable deputy for Saka, who can reach a similar level of performance. Express Sport examines four potential options ahead of the summer transfer window. One of these options is Nico Williams, a promising young winger from Athletic Bilbao. Williams has caught attention with his performance, including five goals and 10 assists in 24 appearances this season.
Despite primarily operating on the left side, he has shown the ability to thrive on the opposite side. With 11 Spain caps already, Williams is an experienced international player and could be a valuable addition to Arsenal. Additionally, he may be seeking new opportunities following interest from Saudi Arabia, and the chance to work with fellow Spaniard Unai Emery at a thriving club like Villa could be appealing.
