Arsenal fans react as talented defender makes Cardiff City move
Arsenal defender Mark McGuinness has joined Cardiff City on a permanent contract, ending a long-standing association with the club.
The Gunners signed the Irishman at the age of 10🎐 and he’s progressed through the academy ranks.
McGui🌳nness spent last season out on loan. The 20-year-old spent the 2020/21 campaign with Ip🧸swich Town and caught the eye.
The centre-back featured in Mikel Arteta’꧟s team during last pre-season. He actually scored during a 4-1 win over MK Dons.
The club confirmed the deal this afternoon on the ༺ and he will link up with Cardiff ahead of next season.
McGuinness played 26 times for Ipswich last season. He originally caught the eye playing aꦫgainst the Tractor B♋oys in the EFL Trophy.
Playing regular men’s football is something which he clearly enjoyed. That aspect will be one which he has considered when choosing to make a permanent sw🎃itch to Cardif🍬f.
McGuin🎃ess plays as a centre-back and as an u✨ncompromising figure he will fit Mick McCarthy’s setup nicely.
Cardiff failed to reach the play-offs last season and that wi💜ll be the aim fo𒉰r 2021/22.
Arsenal supporters not happy with McGuinness departure
The Gunners faithful have a nice connection with the academy and they love seeing their own playe𝐆rs star.
Many had felt that t𒊎he centre-back could make the step up and play in the first-team at the Emirates Stadium.
The 20-year-old looks set for a really bright future and for Arsenal fans it’ll be intriguing to see how💜 he gets on.
The Gunners will probably try and sign another defender themselves this summer. Mi👍kel Arteta will be desperately keen to improve upon the eighth-place finish last ﷽season.
Ben White has been linked, whils🌱t William Saliba could be like a new signing after his loan spell with N🍌ice.
Fans aren’t happy though and as a result, some would have preferred another loan spell for𓆉 McGuin✤ness.
Here is w💧❀hat they had to say on Twitter after today’s news regarding the burly central defender.
