Joao Neves is joining PSG
Romano shared what he knows about the young star.
“The first thing I want t✤o say is that PSG are closing in on a deal to sign Joao Neves. Joao Neves will be a PSG player, I can say that. It’s just a matter of time and days. It’s almost imminent between PSG and Be🔜nfica. PSG are convinced that by next week Joao Neves will join them.” Romano said.
Arsenal need big midfield addition
Arsenal look like they will be getting a ne☂w midfielder this summer.
Mikel Merino is th𒈔e man the ⛦Gunners are said to be most keen on, but even if Merino does sign, a box office midfield addition may still be needed in the near future.
Indeed, at the age of 28, Merino may not be the most long-term of solutions, and Arsenal will have to keep their eyes peeled for any midfiel🍌d market opportunities over the next few years.
Neves may well be the best young midfield player on the market at the moment, and while Arsenal have missed out♌ here, they may eventually need to make a splash and sign a player of Neves’ profile if they want to go on to become bona fide Champions League contenders.
