Arsenal: 6 Cut-Price Transfers to Fill Dani Ceballos’ Boots
By Mac Johnson
Creative Midfielders
This bunch are going to hopefully illustrate the other side of the coin. Naturally, their defensive contributions are going to be less than your box-to-box midfielder, while their creative potential is more in line with filling the void vacated by the Spaniard. However, the players I have selected are slightly more all-action, so as to better fit the Ceballos mold.
Unfortunately, Hale End products Emile Smith-Rowe and Joe Willock have shown flashes of their individual brilliance this season, but are not fully ready to compete for the starting role on a weekly basis. They are out of the question as replacements this summer, although I’m optimistic for their contributions in the future.
Again, the price will be capped at £25m, but as creative players naturally attract more attention, this search was far more difficult.
