The Arsenal fans in and around the Transfer Tavern are becoming more and more excited by the day because of the progress in the transfer market their club is making. 

Already the Gunners have brought a wealth of experience to the club with players such as Bernd Leno, Sokratis and Stephan Lichtsteiner as they aim to challenge the top four of the Premier League once again. Arsenal certainly are building a very strong team but is that enough to launch a proper top four bid? Our punters feel that the added addition of Adrien Rabiot, who is valued at £45 million on Transfermarkt would cement their team and allow the Gunners to again be a force to be reckoned with.

The PSG central-midfielder played in 50 games last season for the French champions, providing 5 goals and 7 assists as well as defensive contributions. The 23-year-old is a box-to-box player who has accumulated a lot of interest already this summer from a variety of top European clubs. However, our punters feel a reunion with Unai Emery could be ideal for the midfielder as well as being the perfect Jack Wilshere replacement for Arsenal.

Adrien Rabiot reportedly wants away from the French club so what better time for Arsenal for them to swoop in and buy themselves a midfielder who is brilliant now but also has the potential to be even better under his former coach.

Arsenal are gearing towards a new future and not one with Arsene Wenger, they have to spend big on quality players to ensure they keep challenging as one of the top teams in the Premier League and the addition of Adrien Rabiot would definitely help that cause.
