Arsenal devise swap plan to sign Liverpool midfield target

Arsenal eye Liverpool target and Inter Milan superstar Nicolo Barella

Liverpool could face competition in their pursuit of Inter Milan star Nicolo Barella as Arsenal also want to secure the services of the 26-year-old Italian international.

According to Calciomercato Web via ECHO, Arsenal could offer Inter Milan Folarin Balogun and Takehiro Tomiyasu in exchange for Barella. The Gunners have a good number of midfield options to choose from, unlike the Reds who at the moment, are extremely short on that front and absolutely need to go out in the market and sign a midfielder, as soon as tomorrow.

Having the second least players in the squad in the English top-tier, we cannot even offer player(s) in exchange. Liverpool’s midfield landscape, once adorned with stalwarts, now stands in the shadows of uncertainty.

With only two signings to compensate for the exodus, the alarm bells of concern resonate across the fanbase. The arithmetic is stark – seven out, two in. The disparity calls for swift action, for decisive measures that not only replenish but give strength to the midfield ranks.

The urgency is undeniable. With the season’s cusp looming, Liverpool’s midfield scenario remains a challenge to complete. The pursuit of Barella takes on a greater significance. The need is not just for a player; it’s for a catalyst, a linchpin that can infuse vitality and creativity into the core.

Time is running out as the transfer window approaches its end. Liverpool face competition from Arsenal, and this intensifies the need to make quick decisions. The fans’ worries and the club’s goals all come together in this transfer saga.

The chase for Barella represents a significant chapter in Liverpool’s plans. Addressing the midfield gap is vital for the club’s success.
