Based on Tutto Atalanta, Arsenal are ‘very ’ in securing the signature of Atalanta goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi this summer time.
The London giants ended the marketing campaign on a excessive with their first Premier League title in 22 years and can be aiming to bolster the squad additional forward of subsequent season.
TuttoAtalanta now declare that the Gunners are planning to signal a brand new goalkeeper and have their sights on securing the providers of Carnesecchi from Atalanta.
Arsenal are stated to be ‘very ’ within the 25-year-old, who might be prised away for £35 million. The Bergamo outfit gained’t entertain something much less for his switch.
The Gunners have already got an excellent relationship with Carnesecchi’s agent Alessandro Lucci, who can also be Riccardo Calafiori’s agent. This might facilitate easy negotiations.
Unlikely deal
The Gunners introduced in Kepa Arrizabalaga because the deputy behind David Raya final summer time. The Spaniard has carried out a good job because the back-up shot-stopper for the London giants.
Barring his main blunder throughout the Carabao Cup closing in opposition to Manchester Metropolis, Arrizabalaga has fared nicely and has acquired the help from supervisor Mikel Arteta as nicely.
Carnesecchi might be a notable improve on Arrizabalaga with higher reflexes. Nevertheless, he isn’t somebody fluent together with his distribution from the again primarily based on his stats final season.
He had a passing accuracy of solely 66% in Serie A final marketing campaign and the Italian was extra fluent together with his lengthy ball deliveries with a mean of just about seven per league look.
At 25, the Atalanta ace is within the prime of his profession, but it surely appears uncertain Arsenal will spend massive cash on a back-up goalkeeper until Arrizabalaga is searching for a manner out quickly.
Even in that case, Carnesecchi might not be tempted to affix the Gunners with out the peace of mind of taking part in time within the Premier League and Champions League matches subsequent season.
That seems unlikely on the playing cards, given Raya is an undisputed starter in each competitions. Therefore, we don’t see the Gunners making an method and the hypothesis might be agent-driven.
Carnesecchi could also be eyeing a much bigger problem away from Atalanta, and will find yourself becoming a member of an elite Serie A membership reminiscent of Inter Milan, who desire a alternative for Yann Sommer.
