Over the past few weeks, things have really started gearing for the Arsenal.
After seeing their rivals bring in star players after star players, the Gunners finally strengthened Mike Arteta’s teams, including Martin Zubimendi, Kepa Alizabaraga and Christian Norgaard.
Additionally, the Premier League runner-up appears very close to ensuring a goalscoring service to sort Viktor Gyoker.
Andrea Berta and Co are not taking place there either. The report links the club to an incredible midfield machine with the Emirates, even if his arrival could be bad news for Martin Odegaard.
Arsenal Target Midfield Maestro
The main thing Arsenal needs to add to the team this summer is to attack talent, goals and dynamism. So it wasn’t surprising that some of the most exciting links of the last few weeks were among players who own all the traits, such as Morgan Rogers.
The Aston Villa star could potentially be available for around £70 million. It’s definitely a lot of money, but it’s easy to see why teams like North Londoners are willing to pay it.
After all, the 22-year-old was able to accumulate an impressive tally of 29 target involvement in 54 appearances.
However, as it is his first full season in the Premier League, there are still some questions about how he will pay in the long run.
According to a recent report from Catchoffside, Arsenal is very interested in signing the Crystal Palace Star.
Additionally, the report revealed that the people of North London are currently trapped in a contract signing the British.
Overall, it might be a great deal for Arsenal and Arteta, but it might spell out trouble for Odegard.
Why Eze could be bad news for Odegard
Eze’s first reason could be bad news for Odegaard next season, but simple news, but undoubtedly the most important thing is his output.
In Palace’s 43 appearances last season, 3,303 minutes total, the 27-year-old “Duel Monster” was dubbed by reporter Simon Collings, scoring 14 goals and providing 11 assists, attacking midfield almost exclusively.
This means that previous QPR GEMs were able to average goal involvement every 1.72 games.

In contrast, the Gunners captain was able to provide 12 assists with six goals in a total of 3,447 minutes of appearances in 45 minutes.
In other words, Norwegian international averaged goal involvement every 2.5 games or every 191.5 minutes, finishing second and reaching the Champions League semi-finals.
But one of the most concerning factors of the former Real Madrid Gem campaign last season was how he disappeared in some of his biggest games, so it’s deeper than the statistics.
Athletics’ Aaron Catterson Ryde, for example, claimed that he left the game’s “completely anonymous display in the second half” to Paris Saint-Germain, while content creator Connor Ham claimed that he “sitted in that stand” with his first stare.
In contrast, the Greenwich-born monster scored in the semi-finals in the FA Cup quarter-finals, scoring his only goal in the final, leading his team to historic glory.
Ultimately, Arsenal should do what he can to sign Eze this summer, as he’s sure to bring goals and excitement to the team, even if it costs Odegard.
