‘I want my freedom, I’m tired of staying on the bench’: Another Arsenal player have told Arteta that He is tired of sitting on the bench as He makes transfer request to leave by January – Not Gabriel and Not Sterling
The January transfer window is fast approaching, and a number of Arsenal players are subject to transfer interest from elsewhere.
The Gunners don’t often like to do any major business in January, and we will be surprised if that changes when the winter window opens this time.
All eyes will be on who Mikel Arteta will sign, if anyone, but there are definitely a few Arsenal players who could be on their way out before the window shuts.
A report from Turkey has now shared some information about one of Arteta’s men.
Besiktas begin talks to sign Arsenal star Jorginho
Jorginho is a very important member of Arsenal’s squad.
The Italian is not just a fantastic player on the pitch, but his leadership skills behind the scenes is highly appreciated by Arteta.
Many Arsenal players including Ben White think Jorginho will become a manager one day, but the midfielder still has a lot to offer on the pitch.
At the Emirates, Jorginho is nowhere near the first choice. He has played just 369 minutes of football in all competitions this season.
That’s why Sabah have claimed that Jorginho is counting the days to the end of his contract, which expires in July next year.
The report adds that officials from Besiktas are now ‘very close to convincing’ the Italian to join them, and their dream is to sign him on a free transfer, either in January or next summer.
It remains to be seen whether Arsenal would consider selling Jorginho in the winter window.
A former Arsenal player is the manager of Besiktas
Besiktas have almost always been behind Galatasaray and Fenerbahce in the Turkish top flight, but they have big ambitions to dominate the league.
That’s why the Black and Whites appointed former Arsenal star Giovanni van Bronckhorst as their new manager at the start of the season.
But, things haven’t quite gone to plan. Besiktas, after 11 games, are already 10 points behind the league leaders, Galatasaray.
That’s why Van Bronckhorst is keen to strengthen his side, and Jorginho, hailed as ‘world-class’ by Mikel Arteta, would be a great signing for them.
However, we think Arsenal should keep hold of Jorginho in January and reassess in the summer
