“He is the best replacement we need to dominate the EPL for a very long time, get him in immediately ” Arsenal legend Ian Wright sends stunning request to Edu and Mikel Arteta as club prepares to sign superstar ahead of summer transfer window

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has made a bold plea to Edu and Mikel Arteta, urging them to swiftly secure a deal for a potential game-changing addition to the team. The focus is on Alvaro Valles, the talented goalkeeper from Las Palmas, who has drawn interest not only from Arsenal but also Aston Villa and Real Betis. Valles, 26, originally developed his skills within Real Madrid’s youth system, and his stellar performances in La Liga have not gone unnoticed. Despite Las Palmas’ current position in ninth place, Valles has been a standout performer, catching the eye of top clubs with his consistent displays. However, amidst the speculation surrounding his future, Valles remains composed and committed to seeing out the current season with Las Palmas.

Arsenal’s interest in bolstering their goalkeeping options comes amid uncertainty surrounding Aaron Ramsdale’s future at the club. Ramsdale’s position as the No.1 goalkeeper has come into question, especially after a high-profile error against Brentford, where David Raya took his place due to a loan agreement. Alongside Valles, Arsenal is also considering Patrick Schulte, a rising talent from Columbus Crew in Major League Soccer. Schulte, 23, made waves by helping his team clinch the 2023 MLS Cup in his debut season and has already earned his international stripes with the United States. Arsenal’s pursuit of Valles and Schulte signifies a proactive approach to reinforce their squad ahead of the upcoming season.
