Former Arsenal midfielder, Paul Merson, has hailed manager Mikel Arteta over two players Riccardo Calafiori and Federico Chiesa set to join the Gunners.
Both Calafiori and Chiesa have been linked with a summer transfer move to Arsenal.
As per transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Gunners are set to sign Calafiori from Bologna for €45 million plus €5 million add-ons, while the Premier League club have also been linked with a move for Juventus’ Chiesa.
However, in a tweet, Merson shared his delight with the links, saying:
“Calafori to Arsenal would be a brilliant signing and now talks of Chiesa… Arteta doing well so far in the transfer market.”
Arsenal finished second position on the Premier League table last season behind champions Manchester City.
They are keen to bolster their squad this summer ahead of the new 2024/25 season.
