Arsenal Target Marcelo Brozovic

Arsenal Target Marcelo Brozovic

The Boss is already looking to put together a long shopping list for next year. The Frenchman is targeting some of Europe’s most promising young players, most of which he noticed while away in Brazil. According to Metro, one of his favorite youngsters is Marcelo Brozovic. The 21 year old is currently under contract with Dinamo Zagreb who managed to secure his services for 7 years. He moved to Zagreb back in 2012 and since then he has gradually improved as a footballer. He has already made 84 appearances for Dinamo in which he scored 12 goals and helped his team with 11 assists. He is versatile and can play well as both a defensive and an offensive midfielder. He looks like the exact match for Arsenal who will need someone to replace Arteta. They also need someone to come in as a substitute for Flamini who is having trouble keeping up.

Arsenal will try and sign the 21 year old as soon as possible. Currently playing an important defensive role for Dinamo Zagreb, Brozovic could come to the Emirates as early as January. Wenger has a lot of trouble right now since Arteta picked up an injury. With Diaby also extending his recovery period, it will be hard to keep up with teams like Chelsea or City who have enough players to build two separate and very competitive teams. Even though the 21 year old still has 5 years left of contract, the bidding price for his signature seems to be pretty low. He is currently valued at £3 million which is not that much for Arsenal.
