Emile Smith Rowe has been linked with a summer move away from Arsenal, with Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, and Everton interested.
Emile Smith Rowe has struggled for regular game time at Arsenal, and he needs to move on in search of regular playing time. According to Fichajes, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, and Everton would be willing to provide the Englishman with an exit route from the North London club.
All three English clubs are keen on the 23-year-old, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. Recent reports have claimed that he might be surplus to requirements at Arsenal heading into the summer transfer window.
Aston Villa will probably be a more attractive destination for the player compared to the other two clubs. The West Midlands outfit have secured UEFA Champions League qualification for next season, and they have a quality squad at their disposal. In addition, Smith Rowe has worked with Unai Emery during their time together at Arsenal. He could be keen on a reunion with the Spanish manager.
The 23-year-old midfielder did quite well when Emery was in charge at Arsenal, and he could be a key player for Aston Villa as well. Aston Villa need to add more craft and goals in the middle of the park, and Smith Rowe could do just that if he can regain his form and confidence.
Crystal Palace and Everton want Emile Smith Rowe
Crystal Palace have a quality squad their disposal, and they are hoping to improve further. Oliver Glasner has helped them finish the season strongly, and they will look to improve their squad in the summer and push for a top half finish next year.
The Arsenal midfielder could prove to be a quality acquisition for the Eagles and it remains to be seen whether they can win the race for his signature. Meanwhile, Everton are thought to be keeping tabs on him as well.
The English midfielder will certainly be a quality acquisition for the Toffees. But they have been fighting for relegation in the recent seasons, and it remains to be seen whether the player is open to joining them. He might feel that it would be a major step down for him. Smith Rowe will probably want to join a team with a more competitive squad.
