Arsenal is reportedly one of the clubs pursuing the potential summer moving window movement of Joel Ordnes, a talented young defender at Club Bruges.
According to Just Arsenal, the highly rated 20-year-old has also been attracting interest from major Premier League clubs such as Chelsea and Liverpool.
The report claims that Gunners have put 405 million euros of Ordonez in a recent game, and that they imagine they were impressed.
Ordonez has long been seen as one of the most promising young defensive talents in the game. He also previously suggested he wanted to move to the Premier League.
According to Football 365, Ordonez was previously asked about joining the club on top flights in English.
Arsenal was able to further strengthen their defense once again with Joel Ordnes’ transfer.
Arsenal already has depth to defensiveness, but Mikel Arteta often appears to have prioritized his position in the transfer market.
Even if the AFC definitely needs a new signature before, and it’s bigger and wider than what it needs to be defended, it could make some sense to snap Ordonez.
Ecuadorian International looks like a player with a big future. If the North London giant is too long, one of its rivals can land him first.
Arsenal is also another talented young defender for Dean Huyssen by Athletics, adding that Real Madrid is keen on William Saliba.
So, if Arsenal is afraid that Saliva is on his way out of Emirates Stadium in the near future, it makes sense to target younger defenders like Huijsen and Ordonez.
Chelsea could also appeal to Ordonez because of their policy of signing and trusting young players to the first team.
Liverpool, on the other hand, could be a good destination. Because the Reds will need a long-term successor to the soon-to-be aging Virgil van Dik.
