4 players Arsenal could use in potential Moises Caicedo deal

3. Emile Smith Rowe

Reports emerged at the end of the season that Arsenal want to retain Smith Rowe this summer despite his barely featuring throughout 2022/23.

The crafty creative midfielder underwent groin surgery last September and returned at the start of 2023. During the second half of the season, however, he failed to notch a single start and it appeared as if Mikel Arteta had lost faith in the player who, some would argue, saved his job.

Despite the recent reports, I wouldn’t be surprised if Arsenal entertained offers for Smith Rowe. If Brighton raise the possibility of including the Englishman in any deal for Caicedo, I think Arsenal would be wise to listen.

The Ecuadorian international has transformative potential in north London.
