Arsenal Transfer News: Wenger Watches £5m Defender

The latest name to be linked with a move to the Emirates is Toulouse defender Aymen Abdennour, with Arsenal linked with a £5m summer move for the defender.

Aymen-Abdennour-Toulouse-Tunisie

Morning Gooners. With the summer transfer window fast approaching, the speculation over who Arsene Wenger will bring in is mounting. 

The latest name to be linked with a move to the Emirates is Toulouse defender Aymen Abdennour, with the Sun claiming we’ve been monitoring his progress for over 6 months and Wenger will make his move this summer.

The report states that scouts were present to watch the 22-year-old in action during a 1-0 win over Rennes on Sunday, and the Tunisian international will cost as little as £5m.

Abdennour is relatively unknown and a far cry from the marquee-type signing many fans are hoping for, but he was impressive at the recent African Cup of Nations. He is a beast of a player, standing at 6 ft 2 inches, and can play in a variety of positions, mainly left-back or centre-back, so would be a useful addition to the squad.

I would still prefer to see Jan Vertonghen arrive at Arsenal this summer, but Abdennour would be a very Wenger-like signing wouldn’t he? Unknown, plays in France and cheap!
