“If he chose Arsenal over Man City, I’ll resign as a football coach…He’s the player we can’t afford to see him playing for them, they may become undefeatable with him”: Pep Guardiola angered by World-class player’s decision to join Arsenal as Man City increases bid to convince him from Arsenal transfer.

While the transfer window is still open and Arsenal is actively seeking new additions, the European Championships are currently in full swing. Arsenal is concentrating on acquiring players who can help close the gap after Manchester City narrowly defeated them to win the Premier League title the previous season.

Despite having the best defensive record in the league the previous season, Mikel Arteta’s team scored five fewer goals than Manchester City. According to recent reports, Arsenal, under the leadership of Edu Gaspar, is seeking to bolster their defense even more. William Saliba is thinking about going long-term with Bologna’s Riccardo Calafiori, one of the most exciting defenders in the Euros.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claims that Arsenal is considering Calafiori. The player would prefer to join Juventus, but his club’s tense relationship with the Italian club may force them to sell him to a Premier League team. Bologna anticipates increased Premier League interest following Italy’s recent European elimination. Calafiori could be acquired for a reported £40 million, which is not a small sum of money but could be a wise investment considering his recent results, according to Football.london.

Calafiori plays proactively, which helps Arsenal control games and put pressure on opponents. As such, he would be a valuable addition. He is among the top 1% of center backs in FBref’s statistics for assists, the top 3% for actions that create shots, the top 4% for interceptions, and the top 8% for successful takeaways per ninety minutes.
