Arsenal Ready To Snatch Mattia Destro

Arsenal might get a chance at signing a spectacular and highly efficient player if Milan do not get their business in order before the end of the season. According to TalkSport, Roma’s Mattia Destro is ready to move to the Premier League and take on a bigger challenge. In recent statements, the striker’s agent had some really harsh things to say about the former Champions League winners who are currently freefalling. Apparently Renzo Contratto who is currently representing Destro, does not feel AC Milan is the place where his player can grow. To be fair, Arsenal now seem ages away from the Italian side in terms of players, performance, organization and everything else in between. The only thing which will remain to be seen is if Roma still want to sell Destro. The Italians were left without a striker after sending their number 9 to Milano. Having him back might be considered a permanent solution which would be unfortunate for the Gunners.

Destro who turned down Wolfsburg last summer looks keen on moving and might pressure Roma to let him leave. The 24 year old who seems to have dropped out of favour at Stadio Olimpico is under contract with the Romans until 2017. He is currently valued at about £10m which would not be a problem for Arsenal. The center forward could be an excellent solution for Wenger who needs strong competition up front. Welbeck has been struggling despite a good start and sometimes that causes problems for the Gunners especially if Giroud is not available. Having Destro around could have a positive impact on the team.
