Happy with Offer – €32m Star to Join Arsenal this Month

Arsenal fans are delighted that against all odds and Wenger’s reputation, the Gunners are busy in the winter transfer market.
The North Londoners have already completed the signing of young midfielder Krystian Bielik and are closing in to complete another in the form of Brazilian star Gabriel Paulista.
However, as per latest reports, Arsenal are in no mood of stopping yet and they have made an offer for Real Madrid midfielder Asier Illaramendi.
The versatile midfielder was signed by Los Blancos before the start of last season from Sociedad for a hefty price tag of €32m but now finds himself in a complex situation at the Bernabeu.
The 24 year old star has quickly turned into a bench warmer since the arrival of German international Toni Kroos from Bayern Munich. The World Cup winner has formed a brilliant partnership with Croat Luka Modric and even Khedira has now returned from injury to get game time in the last three league fixtures.
Illaramendi has only been able to complete 90 minutes in 3 league games. On the other hand his performances have not been up to the mark as well.
He has made 21 appearances for the European champions this season but has not registered a single goal or assist.
Illaramendi surely has quality but with better team mates in the squad, the chances will always be limited. Hence, as per the provided Metro link, the Spanish international is happy with Arsenal’s offer, would like to live in London and more importantly, he wants the transfer to be completed this month in the winter window instead of waiting for next summer to move.
Arsenal fans will be overjoyed if they can somehow complete the signing of Illaramendi as Bielik is still an understudy while Asier can go straight in the starting XI and has the ability to play anywhere in midfield.
