They are now trapped in another great signature, which means they can get even more from the prolific Swedes.<\/p>\n<p>At least that&#8217;s according to a recent report from transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, who claims that Arsenal is still very interested in Piero Hinkapie.<\/p>\n<p>More than that, Italian journalists have revealed that the gunners have agreed to personal terms with the player and are now accelerating their meeting with Bayer Lebakusen.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Romano argues that North London preferences will be loans that are obligated to purchase. This would not be much of a surprise if other reports claim that Ecuadorian release clause is \u00a352 million.<\/p>\n<p>However, this deal is ultimately constructed and it&#8217;s worth it for Arsenal as Hinkapie is an incredible player and someone who can make Gyoker even better.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"why-hincapie-would-be-incredible-for-gyokeres\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Hincapie_is_incredible_for_Gyoker\"><\/span>\n                        <strong>Why Hincapie is incredible for Gyoker<\/strong><br \/>\n               <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>So, Gyoker sometimes drifts wildly and even comes back to help play link-ups, but he is fundamentally a striker who likes to spend his time inside and around the penalty area.<\/p>\n<p>    This is also clear when examining his shot map from last season. Because most of them came from within the penalty area.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, to maximize his effectiveness, Arsenal needs to deliver the ball to him in these dangerous areas.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, these are great things Hincapee does.<\/p>\n<p>The Leverkusen star is a defender and may be great on top of that, but one of his real strengths is his ability to plunder byline and fire with a cross to finish his teammates.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, he is so skilled at doing this that analyst Ben Matinon described him as &#8220;Ben White on the left.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, the underlying numbers for the 23-year-old dynamo paint a picture of a rampage fullback that can relatively easily pull the ball to a striker, so don&#8217;t look at our words.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-container\">\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"\" align=\"\" summary=\"\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"3\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Hincapie&#8217;s FB Scout Report<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>statistics<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Around 90<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Percentile<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>The shot was blocked<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>0.65<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 1%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Touch (mid-3 days)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>42.07<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 2%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Total passing distance<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>1022.32<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 3%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Progressive passing distance<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>359.66<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 3%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Live ball pass<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>64.43<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 3%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>The air won<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>2.25<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 3%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>The pass is complete<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>61.71<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 4%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Pass completed %<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>88.1%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 5%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>touch<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>81.35<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 5%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>carry<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>45.99<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 5%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Progressive carrying distance<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>137.22<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 5%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Total mobile distance<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>230.70<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 7%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Move to the last third<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>5.20<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 8%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>SCA (Shot)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>0.18<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Top 8%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"3\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><em>All statistics via FBREF<\/em><\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>According to FBREF, he ranks in the top 3% of fullbacks in Europe&#8217;s top 5 leagues, with top 5% of progressive passing distance, top 5% of progressive carrying distance and overall carry, top 8% of passes to the final third, and all about 90.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, he&#8217;s not leaning forward when it comes to defense, but Hincapy&#8217;s biggest strength is his ability to fly the pitch and put the ball into dangerous areas.
