Arsenal target Barella nominated for Ballon d’Or

The Ballon d’Or is a very prestigious award for footballers to win as i🌃t is given to those who are deemed to best on the planet over that calendar year.

Barella is a ‘‘ midfielder and it is no shock to see him nominateꦿd for the award. It is a great achievement as only 3꧃0 players get nominated each year.

This shows the quality of the 26 year-old and Arsenal will perhaps now feel like they should have made a mo💖ve to sign the player.

The Gunners have not looked at their best th💟is seas𝔍on but they have managed to grind out some very good results.

It will be interesting to see what Arsenal do in Ja🌌nuary. New signing Kai Havertz is being deployed in midfield and it is early doors but the move hasn’t worked massively yet.

Possibly going back in for Barella would sꦬeem like a sensible move if they need to add more midfield quality to the squad.
