Arsenal Transfers: Picking One Player From Each Ligue 1 Side
By Josh Sippie
Arsenal may be facing a very active January transfer window. With that in mind, let’s make the rounds and pick one player from each Ligue 1 side that Arsenal could use.
Arsene Wenger has a particular affinity for French players. At least he has in the past. As such, it is not unusual to see him buying young French players from all over the world. He has also done some shopping in Ligue 1 too. Both Olivier Giroud and Laurent Koscielny were bought from Ligue 1 sides and both are rather valuable to the current Arsenal side.

Arsenal has also been linked to their fair share of Ligue 1 stars, including Edinson Cavani, Alexandre Lacazette, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marco Verratti. No such moves have come to fruition but you can bet that, given that it is Arsene Wenger’s homeland, he is regularly poking his his head in, searching for potential deals.

January is going to be pretty eventful for Arsenal, whether new signings are made or not. Arsenal desperately need some reinforcements but with Wenger at the helm, there is always the risk that very little or no signings are made. Rumors will still run rampant however, as they are now. Arsenal are tied to at least five PSG players, three from OGC Nice and the usual from Lyon.
This slideshow is dedicated not only to plausible transfers but to wild fantasies as well. Feel free to come here looking for Edinson Cavani rumors. We have sworn to disregard any link to Edinson Cavani from now until kingdom come, however, we can still fantasize about him in an Arsenal kit. Zlatan is not so far-fetched, but will he be the one man from PSG that Arsenal could use the most from PSG?
Only time will tell. Let’s get started with the back end of the league, with the unfortunate Troyes.
