Sol Campbell believes that Arsenal should act on their transfer interest in Liverpool transfer target Marc Guehi and says the Crystal Palace defender would be a ‘top’ addition to Mikel Arteta’s side.
Marc Guehi has been in the transfer headlines for the past few months, as there has been constant speculation and rumours that Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal are all very much interested in getting a deal done.
*LIVERPOOL*have been linked with Guehi for the last few transfer windows, but they have not yet made their moves, and reports suggest Arne Slot will wait until the end of the season to make an offer for the England star.
But amid the speculation and rumours, Campbell believes that the Gunners would be foolish not to enquire about Guehi to add their wealth of options in the backline: ‘The back line is more interesting,’ Campbell told Sky Bet.
‘Marc Guehi at Crystal Palace is a top player. I know *LIVERPOOL*are sniffing around him. That’s someone I would inquire about.’
Arsenal have been the best defensive side in the Premier League over the past three seasons, in large part down to the rock-solid partnership between Gabriel and William Saliba, and Campbell believes the two can go down as Arsenal’s best-ever centre-back pairing.
‘To be a truly top centre-half pairing, you must play together for two, three, four, even five years,’ he said. ‘And you must win things.
‘You need to perform at a high-level week in, week out, across multiple seasons, then look back and say, ‘We achieved something’.
‘You can’t really compare partnerships until that happens. Potentially, Gabriel Magalhães and William Saliba could be the best Arsenal have had, and among the best the Premier League has seen. But potential isn’t enough – you have to win.
‘Everything is there. I hope they go on to build an outstanding partnership over the next few years, win trophies and fulfil what they’re working towards.
‘You can play brilliantly and have a great relationship, but if you don’t win anything, something is missing.
‘That’s what you’ve got to do – play amazing, have a great relationship, win as well, and then look back and say, ‘That was an amazing time.’ Until then, it’s all about potential. Hypothetically.’
