The Spanish media today covers Arsenal interest in Barcelona fullback Sergi Roberto.
The story comes from Sport, who point out that the Premier League is a potential way out for the 31-year-old.
It’s claimed that there are English clubs who like him, and they say the last one who asked about him was Arsenal.
The outlet says the Gunners would like to add his experience and versatility to the squad, as he’s a box-to-box who’d help the young players in the team, while Mikel Arteta himself rates him highly.
According to the article, he’s ‘To Arteta’s taste’.
Sport says what could attract Sergi to Arsenal is the fact that he likes London, as he often spends time off in the city, having just posted some pictures there.
The player’s contract with Barcelona runs until the end of the season, with an option for an extra year. The outlet explains that his intention has been to evaluate the scenario year after year, and although his priority is to stay at the Camp Nou, an exit isn’t ruled out. Maybe that’s an open door that Arteta and Edu Gaspar should at least have a check.
