Just an hour ago;Arsenal backed to sign ‘great’ Aston Villa star by Invincible…
Arsenal legend Gilberto Silva has backed Mikel Arteta’s side to go out and sign Aston Villa’s Douglas Luiz in the summer.
The 25-year-old has long been linked with a possible move to the Emirates Stadium, and with the future of Thomas Partey with the Gunners still uncertain, there is scope for Arteta to bring in an additional midfield option.
The Spaniard is seeking to strengthen his side in order to win the Premier League title, and Silva, who was a member of the Invincibles squad that lifted the North Londoners’ last crown in 2003/04, has backed the signing of the Brazil international.
“He’s progressing, he’s improving and he’s well adapted to the Premier League. He’s proven himself that he can go to the next level,” he told Chris Wheatley on Shots TV.
“I really enjoy it when the Brazilian players come to the Premier League, which for me is still the most difficult league to play in, especially for South Americans to come and adapt well.
“Why not to Arsenal next season? It would be a great move for him and the club.”
