Arsenal are reportedly set to seal the capture of 53-year-old Italian transfer guru Andrea Berta as their next sporting director.
According to a report from The Athletic, Arsenal have reached an agreement with 53-year-old Italian transfer guru Andrea Berta, and he is said to take over as the club’s next sporting director. The former Atletico Madrid man did an impressive job with Los Rojiblancos in the past, and he could prove to be an exceptional acquisition for Arsenal.
The Gunners are looking to build a formidable squad capable of winning major trophies, and they have several talented players at their disposal. With a couple of intelligent additions in the summer, they could finally win a major trophy. It will be interesting to see if Berta can address some of their major weaknesses in the summer.
Arsenal need a quality wide player and a reliable finisher. Berta has proven himself at big clubs, and he is certainly good enough for Arsenal. He will look to build a legacy at the North London club and help them win major trophies in the coming seasons.
Can Berta help Arsenal win a major trophy?
Arsenal have been fighting for the Premier League title in recent seasons, and they have missed out narrowly in the last couple of campaigns. They are likely to miss out this season as well. The North Londoners will need to address the gaps in their squad during the summer transfer window and that is why they have decided to invest in a quality sporting director.
The 53-year-old certainly has the pedigree to transform their squad, and it remains to be seen how he fares in the upcoming transfer window. The opportunity to join a top Premier League club can be quite appealing, and Berta will certainly be excited about his new job.
It will be interesting to see if he can help Mikel Arteta build a squad capable of challenging and winning major trophies consistently. Arsenal are one of the biggest clubs in the world, but they have not been able to win a major trophy for quite some time. It remains to be seen whether they can get back to the top of English football once again.
