Arsenal is set to bolster its squad during the upcoming summer transfer window. While the team is undoubtedly in need of a new striker, there are other positions within The Gunners that need upgrading as well.
Mikel Arteta is particularly keen on enhancing the competition at right back. Currently, the Spanish manager can rely on Ben White, Jurrien Timber, and Takehiro Tomiyasu, though these players frequently miss games due to injuries.
As a result, the London club is exploring the market for a new right-back. According to the Spanish site “Fichajes.net,” Arsenal may look to La Liga for reinforcements, having shown interest in Osasuna Pamplona’s Jesus Areso.
Recently, the 25-year-old Spaniard has made significant strides, which is evident in his current season’s performance. The former youth international for La Furia Roja has played 29 matches and provided 3 assists, spending nearly 2,500 minutes on the field.
The excellent form of the right-back has attracted the attention of The Gunners, who are considering making an offer for the player, valued at around 8 million euros. Jesus Areso is a product of Osasuna Pamplona’s youth system, though he has also played for other clubs during his career, including Athletic Bilbao and Burgos CF.
