DONE – Arsenal Agree Deal to Secure Priority Signing

At this point, last season, Arsenal were on top of the Barclays premier league. Now they are not even in the title race.
Fans have all the right to be furious and perhaps demanding Wenger’s exit makes sense as well but booing your own manager does not.
Nevertheless, Arsene Wenger has all the backing of the board and he is here to stay. However, the French manager needs quality signings in the winter transfer window to turn the season around.
One major position that Arsenal wanted to reinforce in summer was that of a defensive midfielder. However, gunners failed to do so.
They do have two options in the form of Arteta and Flamini but both are far from quality holding midfielders and Arsenal must sign one in winter.
Sami Khedira was linked with a move to Emirates but the rumor is not so much in the lime light these days.
In face, a new name has come up now with Brazilian international Lucas Silva.
According to reports, Arsenal have agreed a deal to secure the signing of highly rated Cruzeiro’s young defensive midfielder in winter.
As per the provided link, the North Londoners have met the asking price of 15 million Euro to agree deal for the 21 year old Samba star.
Gunner supporters will hope that Silva settles well and soon in the premier league. Moreover, Arsenal must look to sign another central defender as well because they seriously lack depth in that department.
