Arsenal receive possible boost over Maxi Gomez as president’s comments surface
Arsenal may have been handed a boost in their reported pursuit of Valencia 🐟striker Maxi Gomez, with the club’s presiden🎃t stating player sales will need to be made.
The Spanish club are in a precarious financial positionꦫ at the moment as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
They ಞwere forced to sell key players such as Rodrigo, Ferran Torres, Geoffrey Kondogbia and Francis Coquelin in the last transfer window.
But it seems more funds need raising, with Anil Murthy saying (): “We have two d🔜ifficult years ahead and there will be additional player sales.
“We will adjust the cost of the squad to the glo🌞bal economic re♉ality.”
It’s explained by the outle𝓰t that manager Ja✃vi Gracia is fearful of losing Gomez, 24, who is thought to be a more significant means of raising funds for the club.
A🥃rsenal were linked with a move for the Uruguayan last week ().
TBR’s View – Hope for Arsenal with Valencia under pressure?
By all accounts Valencia are in𒀰 a bit of a mess financially at the moment, and there could be a real opportunity here for the Gunners.
Gomez would bring qualities not possessed by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang a๊nd Alexandre Lacazette.
The South American – who joined Valencia for a reporꦓted €14.5 million/£13 million in 2019 ()- is burly and physical and would bring something different for Mikel Arteta.
It seems he could well be a sacrifical lamb next month, and Arsenal haveꦫ surely got to do some enquiring to see what Valencia want for him.
