Could This 30-Year-Old Winger Be The Key To Arsenal’s Success?

Wenger has been missing a left winger to fill in the left side of the attack. Podolski never seemed up to the task, while Cazorla, Ramsey and Ozil perform much better down the middle of the pitch. According to ESPN, a solution might come from France where PSG’s Ezequiel Lavezzi has finally given up trying to make his way into the starting eleven. The 30-year-old is very likely to request to be let go this winter given the fact that his contract will expire in June 2016. Rumors have it that he will be let go for 1/3rd of the amount initially paid by the French side to Napoli who received around £20m for the Argentinian winger. Currently he is valued at £9m which is kind of unfair for Lavezzi who maintains a steady goal and assist rate great for any player in his position.

The biggest things that the 30-year-old would bring to the table is his determination, among other things. With him and Sanchez in the attack, you just know Arsenal will have a better chance to come back from any disadvantage. In a way Lavezzi is very similar to Sanchez and if given the chance to be a team regular, he might still have a few good years to show what he is capable of. The transfer is very possible as Arsenal look the most likely to offer him a chance to win trophies, while playing at the highest level possible. Interest from Spain and Italy also might exist but in terms of domestic competitions, The Gunners clearly have the upper hand.
