Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing UD Las Palmas attacking midfielder Alberto Moleiro but will face stiff competition from Al-Hilal.
According to a report by TEAMtalk, Arsenal will face competition from Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal in the race to sign Alberto Moleiro. The Spanish midfielder is highly rated across Europe, and he has a bright future ahead of himself. He could prove to be a quality acquisition for Arsenal if they can get the deal done.
They have been overly dependent on Martin Odegaard for goals and creativity. They need more quality and depth in the final third and signing the 21-year-old would be a wise decision. He is capable of operating in the number ten role as well as a winger. His versatility will be a bonus for Arsenal if they can get the deal done.
Arsenal have put together a formidable squad and adding more depth to it will only improve their chances of fighting for major trophies. The midfielder is reportedly valued at €20 million and Arsenal certainly have the financial muscle to get the deal done. The move could look like a bargain in the long term if the Spaniard manages to adapt to English football quickly.
Can Al-Hilal convince Moleiro to join?
Meanwhile, Al-Hilal are keen on the player as well, and they have the financial muscle to get the deal done. It will be interesting to see if the midfielder is keen on moving to Saudi Arabia. He will probably want to compete at a top European club at the stage of his career. He will have plenty of opportunities to move to Saudi Arabia in the future.
The opportunity to move to Arsenal is likely to be more attractive. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world and they will be able to provide him with the platform to showcase qualities in the Premier League and the Champions League.
The midfielder is still only 21 and he will only improve with coaching and experience. He could develop into a top-class Premier League attacker in the near future. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal can get the deal done. The player has been linked with Aston Villa as well.
