Former Arsenal player Emmanuel Frimpong has advised the Gunners to sign Napoli centerback Kalidou Koulibaly next summer. Unai Emery’s men have endured a tough start to the season, having won only three out of six games this season.
Arsenal twice came back in their 3-2 victory against Aston Villa last week, but the results failed to coverup their defensive frailities. And, Frimpong feels Koulibaly would be the right man to improve their ailing backline.
“Pretty far, to be honest,” he said.
“I watched the game against Watford and it wasn’t good. Our defence is certainly weaker when you compare it to Liverpool or Man City.”
“David Luiz has been making some mistakes, and in my opinion, there’s little difference between Luiz and Mustafi; I would rather see Callum Chambers selected.”
“They need to be buying better defenders, like Koulibaly, who can make a big impact on Arsenal’s team.”
He added: “Yes, [they need] a Koulibaly! They have to improve the defence to challenge.”
