Arsenal are keen on signing Dominick Szoboszlai, as per the Athletic.
It is well established that Arsenal’s problems are arising from a lack of creativity and the Hungarian provides that in plenty.
He has been outstanding for Red Bull Salzburg over the past two years, scoring 8 goals in all competitions this season. Plenty of clubs are after him including Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
Arsenal will definitely have a fight on their hands in chasing Szoboszlai. His release clause has been reported to be £21 million which is quite cheap according to present market conditions.
The Gunners do have some concerns over Szboszlai. While he is a great attacking threat, he does lack in certain areas like ball retention and defensive contribution. The 20-year-old likes to operate in an advanced role either as a left winger or an attacking midfielder.
Arsenal’s setup under Mikel Arteta is pretty strict when it comes to pressing the opposition. Winning back position is high on the Spaniard’s agenda and that could an area Szoboszlai will have to work on if he arrives.
Nevertheless, the playmaker is still very young and has plenty of time to adjust. The best ones always do. It will be his offensive output which is of immediate need to Arsenal. Signing him would go a long way in improving the team.
