Arsenal have been urged to avoid splashing the cash on Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali when the transfer window reopens in the summer, which will give the likes of Chelsea a great transfer boost.
Since moving to Newcastle a few transfer windows ago, Tonali had developed into one of the bets holding midfielders in the Premier League, and a player that all the big clubs have been linked with over the past few months going into the summer transfer window.
It has been claimed that Arsenal and CHELSEA are ready to splash the cash and spend close to £100 million in order to try and get the Italian players all signed up, but former Gunners star Anders Limpar believes Mikel Arteta’s side is already stacked with talent in midfield and is not sure whether the signing of Tonali would respresent an improvement.
‘I am not sure if Sandro Tonali can add anything to the midfield,’ Limpar told SpilXperten.
‘We have Zubimendi, Declan Rice and even Merino who will come back. We have Norgaard who is unbelievable as well. Should they splash the cash for a player like Tonali? He would be number five. He is a hell of a player, but I am not sure he would strengthen Arsenal.
‘If Norgaard plays regularly and is trusted by the manager, he is going to be unbelievable for Arsenal, but he is not playing because Zubimendi and Rice are playing amazingly.‘
The midfield is not a spot where Arsenal needs a new player. They have five world class players, so Tonali wouldn’t fit in. In my opinion we shouldn’t buy him.’
Do Chelsea need Sandro Tonali?
There are areas of the pitch that we need to improve on, we need some experience at the back and although i really like Joao Pedro, we need a striker that can score 30 goals a season.
Tonali is solid and is Premier League proven, but the midfield that CHELSEA have, the quality we have, there is not really any need to splash £100 million to sign a midfielder that is not better than what we have already.
