Aymeric Laporte has been linked with a move away from the Premier League champions.
Aymeric Laporte is linked with Arsenal for a potential summer move. Journalist Paul Brown has given his verdict on Man City star, speaking to GIVEMESPORT.
The Man City defender struggled for game time last season so he could be looking for a fresh challenge this summer.
Laporte joined Manchester City for a fee of around £57m back in 2018 from Athletic Bilbao. The 29-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Premier League champions.
Man City have shifted their focus on signing RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol and they can likely sell Laporte this summer. He could find himself even further down the pecking order if he was to stay at the Etihad Stadium this summer.
Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, he said: “Laporte, going to Arsenal, I think that would be actually quite a nice fit. I think he would do a really good job for Arsenal. Joao Cancelo I have my doubts about, I’ve spoken about that before, but Laporte I think would fit quite nicely at Arsenal.
“It feels like he has the kind of profile that would slot in quite nicely alongside a couple of the different centre backs there at the club already.”
I do think he’s reliable, experienced, used to being a winner. That feels like a move that would be a really good one if Arsenal were able to pull it off.”
But I think there’s some way to go before anything like this happens.”
