Arsenal Transfer News: Although Arsenal is reportedly more interested in signing Real Madrid midfielder Marco Asensio, Liverpool have also been linked to a deal for the player
Arsenal Transfer News: Reports in the Fichajes indicate that Liverpool will be looking to add a midfielder to their roster this summer. And Marco Asensio, a 27-year-old star for Real Madrid, has recently caught their eye. Moreover, the source claims that Arsenal is also interested in acquiring the services of the gifted offensive midfielder. It would seem that the two sides are equally motivated to strengthen their midfield. Even yet, neither Arsenal nor Liverpool has yet presented a firm bid for Asensio. Therefore it’s anyone’s guess which club will do so. Although it would strengthen the team’s midfield, seeking Real Madrid’s star player seems odd.
Liverpool reportedly wants to acquire Jude Bellingham, a midfielder for Borussia Dortmund. If Real Madrid ends up bringing in the English national team’s star player, though, they will do everything it takes to secure the services of Asensio. Asensio can play either the flank or the offensive midfield position. Jurgen Klopp’s squad lacks finishing skills and innovation. He must address this. Furthermore, Asensio will solve that issue without a doubt. The Spaniard will provide more room for players like Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah to shine.
Arsenal Transfer News: What’s the matter?
Mikel Arteta, however, has relied too much on players like Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka, and Gabriel Martinelli this year. The Gunners will have to compete on several fronts next season, thus Arsenal’s manager must strengthen his roster. In order to be successful, he will need to bolster his assault, and acquiring Asensio may be a good first step in that direction. There have been rumours as of late that the Real Madrid attacker will be meeting with Arsenal.
Arteta’s style of play suggests that the Real Madrid offensive midfielder might thrive in his new role at the north London side. Also, he will get a chance to compete in big championships with the Gunners. The 27-year-old has seen little action this season for Carlo Ancelotti’s squad. Also, a player of his calibre has high aspirations and expects to start each and every game.
Leaving Real Madrid is an obvious prerequisite for it to occur. In addition, Asensio’s contract with the Spanish club will run out in the summer of 2023. A contract extension has not yet been negotiated. The attacker for Real Madrid is available for a free move to clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool. Asensio would be a steal for both teams.
What’s next for the Gunners?
Everything was predetermined by the script. Due to Sean Dyche’s return to the Premier League, the raucous atmosphere at Goodison Park, and the recent hiring of a new manager, many predicted that first-place Arsenal would easily defeat Everton. Fans knew it wouldn’t be easy if Frank Lampard was cut.

The manner in which the Gunners suffered just their second loss of the season may have prompted a serious investigation in years past. Mikel Arteta’s season-long resurgence culminated in a heartbreaking late-game loss against the same opponents in December 2021.
In the months that followed, a push was made to finish in the top four. But it was too late for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. This loss was unique. Statistically speaking, it should be a short-term setback for a team that keeps proving to be the finest in the nation.
